Many people are unaware that LGBT+ people have been heavily involved in the ongoing video gaming revolution since its inception, largely because their achievements are often hidden or not celebrated.
David Gaider is one of gaming’s leading writers, as well as a skilled narrative designer, novelist, and creative director. David explained why it is so important to challenge the status quo, saying:
“There’s a tendency for every character’s default to be straight, white, and male in our industry – and nobody questions that default. No character ever has to justify why they’re straight, white, and male. The moment you make them anything else, you suddenly need reasons why that’s okay… or do you? A certain amount of deliberateness is required to challenge the idea of a default, and while it feels a bit unnatural to do so, it’s absolutely necessary. It’s a way to create without unthinkingly doing things the same way simply because that’s how you’ve always done them.”
As one of many pioneering trans women in game designing and programming, Danielle Bunten Berry helped to influence the multiplayer genre with the birthing of the iconic 80s strategy multiplayer video game M.U.L.E, which combines real-time and turn-based styles as you battle for land and resources on a newly colonised planet.
American transgender video game designer Rebecca Heineman has been involved in iconic gaming titles from Crystal Quest to DOOM. She is also one of the founding members of several video game companies including Interplay Productions, Logicware, Contraband Entertainment, and Olde Sküül.
In the Netflix series High Score, Heineman talks about her earliest gaming achievement, becoming the first national gaming champion in 1980, when she was crowned the best Space Invaders player in the country aged just 16.
Jamie Fenton has been an active voice and presence in the gaming community for transgender women since 1998. Acting as the head designer for the iconic 1981 arcade game Gorf, Jamie was one of the creators of MacroMind’s VideoWorks software.
Maddy Thorson is the Canadian genius behind the development of two popular indie games: TowerFall and Celeste. Thorson came out as non-binary in July 2019 and uses them/they pronouns. Using their life experiences as a reference, Maddy created the character, Madeline, in the game Celeste, who was transgender – with Thorson later revealing in an interview with PC Gamer that the process of creating the game “was a reflection on their own coming-to-terms with their gender identity”.
In the 80s, Veda Hlublinka-Cook was a talented, pioneering video game programmer at Broderbund Software, Inc., designing and writing games like Gumball and D/Generation – and even modelling for one of the characters in Jordan Mechner’s 1989 game Prince of Persia. Veda came out as transgender in 2017.
Known for being the founder of game company Junglevision, Cathryn Mataga is one of the leading female game programmers in the world. Way back in the 80s, she was writing early video games for the Atari 8-bit computer under Synapse Software. From the flip-shooter game Shamus (1982) to X-Men: Reign of Apocalypse and Spiderman 2, Cathryn has been a visible voice and activist for the LGBT+ community, opening many doors for people who wanted to be accepted for who they are, and their talents – and nothing else.
These talented LGBT+ people helped to make modern video gaming what it is today, but their achievements are often hidden or not celebrated.
// I’m thinking about starting some kind of coding or productivity challenge to boost my efficiency and skills. 💻 Do you know any? I’d like to be involved in something like that and to share experience with others who do the same thing ❤️ ⠀ • #nonbinarycodes #nonbinaryintech #queerintech (at Kalininsky District, Saint Petersburg)

I love it when they call it #BHAM. In Alabama this week, asking: What is standing in the way of Birmingham being the best version of itself? @SmithMegan + @TechJobsTour want to know. People don't mix. We stay in our own silos. We don't recognize low-income entrepreneurship. We do solutions to people instead of working collaboratively. Race and class are barriers to accessing capital. "We built a Navy destroyer in 33 days. If this was a war we would be winning this." During our visit to Birmingham Civil Rights Institute, we learned about the young people who fought for the lives of Black people in the 1960s. When we protect the lives of people, we unlock human potential. How can we honor the leadership of these freedom fighters by building the innovation economies our country needs to become peaceful and inclusive in the next 100 years? Honored to work with @TechJobsTour + 3rd USCTO Megan Smith and @alcole01 @lepitts @goleftmitali @domlet to catalyze innovation in tech ecosystems across the nation. Next up: Baltimore, Cleveland, Atlanta, Chattanooga, Nashville, New Orleans, Los Angeles, San Francisco.

Fighting extremely hard against all the negative bullshit I tell myself everyday when I put myself down. Enough is enough. Made a commitment to myself to really push myself out of my comfort zone. if my real goal is to be apart of the tech community then I gotta fight and do what I can to get there. I gotta put in work to finally work on something I love.
Excited to be surrounded by a huge tech queer community. It’s gonna be a great weekend in the bay!
