Wings Interactive has teamed up with a host of companies in the games industry to create the GDC Relief Fund, already raising $76,500 in the space of a few short days. Supported developers will be selected according to the estimated impact of the postponement on their organisations and the financial hardship they are experiencing. Developers are invited to apply via the GDC Relief Fund website.
 

More sponsors are joining the cause, so far including:
 

Redbeet Interactive

Landfall

Raw Fury

Modern Wolf

Warhorse Studios

Versus Evil

11 bit studios

Those Awesome Guys

United Label

Triband

Makers Fund

gamedev.world

The Games and Online Harassment Hotline
 

“The postponement of GDC at such short notice is completely unprecedented, and we’ve been blown away by how quickly the games industry has come together to help independent game developers suffering hardship as a result,” said WINGS co-founder Cassia Curran. “More companies are donating to the GDC Relief Fund all the time, and gamedev.world is moreover launching a fundraiser between March 27th and April 3rd with all donations going to the fund. Our hope is that the GDC Relief Fund will make it easier for individuals and small teams that have been disproportionately impacted to deal with the recent developments.”
