Cybee will curate and host Cry/Sis Game Jamz, a monthly workshop series where women, trans, and nonbinary friends and neighbors are invited come together to make mini video games in a femme affirming space. The theme is mental health and support, which they will explore together, playing games such as Depression Quest and Dys4ia. They will use fun, accessible software to make playable resources for themselves and others.
