Game On – Safer, Kinder Games Industry Events

Practical Safety. Shared Responsibility. Free for Everyone

A free, people-first initiative to help studios and organisers design events where everyone feels safe, respected, and supported.

Why Game On Exists

Game On was created because I’ve seen the harm that happens when safety is treated as an afterthought—and the power of what changes when it’s built in from the start.

This isn’t a policy download. It’s a shared commitment to doing better for the people who show up, speak up, and represent our industry in public spaces.

Whether you’re hosting, attending, or sending a team, Game On is here to help you plan proactively and support confidently. No jargon. No gatekeeping. Just guidance you can actually use.

What’s Included (Free and Open Access)

• Event Safety Guide for organisers

• Studio Support Guide for employers sending teams

• Comms templates for codes of conduct, signage and messaging

• On-the-day checklist for event leads

• Personal safety tips for individual attendees

All free to download, adapt, and share. No forms. No fees. Just take what you need—and use it well.

Designed For:

• Studios planning off-sites or team trips

• Event organisers (from meetups to conferences)

• Speakers and panellists

• First-time attendees

• Anyone who wants to help make our spaces safer

Why This Matters

Events are where careers are made, deals are signed, and communities come to life. But they only work if everyone feels like they belong there—without fear of harassment, exclusion, or harm. Game On helps you build that kind of environment - clearly, confidently, and without reinventing the wheel.

Built With Experience

Game On launched at nDreams, and has since been used by Guildford Games Festival, Nordic Game, and multiple studio events. Now, hosted independently by Wise Cat, it’s available for the whole industry to use, adapt, and grow together.
