Gaming is now a massive industry worth billions of dollars, and it's even bigger than movies and music. The article talks about a cool program in New York City that supports indie games made locally. The winner, Everyrealm, is creating a game called "RU1" and is donating to a group called Games for Change, which uses games for good causes. It's awesome that gaming is growing so much and making a positive impact!

$159.3 billion. is the worth of gaming industry right now. Imagine all the jobs it can provide if government will support budding developers.

It's impressive that at least 75% of a game's production costs need to be spent in NYC to qualify for the program. This will surely boost the local game development scene and promote growth in our city's gaming industry.

This is such a win-win situation! Everyrealm gets free advertising for their game "RU1" by participating in the Made In NY program, and at the same time, they contribute to Games for Change, which helps real-world causes. I love how gaming can make a positive difference! Politicians who says gaming in harmful can jump to a lake.

I can't wait to see what more intriguing games come out of this project! Games for Change is doing amazing work, thus it makes me happy to see companies like Everyrealm supporting them. Knowing that the New York City gaming community is working together to change the world for the better through their games is energizing.
