NEW EPISODE... Someone Else's Problem: How Game Publishers Buy Crunch Overseas (Patreon)

Hey patrons!

Over the last month we've interviewed 19 employees from outsourcing studios in Malaysia and Indonesia who've provided artwork for SO MANY games you've likely played. 

What we found was yet another example of the games industry benefiting from a massive amount of unpaid labour. As we continue to see more reporting on the working conditions for game developers at the world's top studios (which is great!), it's important to note that not everyone is being heard from.

Here's our story on how AAA game publishers profit from other people doing their crunch overseas.

This took a lot of work, with so many interviews being done and we've also needed to hire voice actors from both countries to help read the quotes and protect the anonymity of our sources. We couldn't do this kind of work without your generous support. Thank you!
