An Itch.io bundle called “The Game Industry Hardship Fund” is live and offers access to more than 100 games for a price of about $10. Multiple outlets report that the bundle is compiled by game developers and is intended to raise money for colleagues who have been laid off. The organizers use the proceeds from sales to provide support to affected workers in the games industry.
The bundle is available on Itch.io and, according to reporting, will remain on sale for a limited period, with one source stating it runs for the next two weeks. The campaign’s focus is on providing financial assistance rather than distributing a single title, with participating games collectively forming a large library for the donation period.
Across the coverage, the central details are that the bundle includes more than 100 games, is hosted on Itch.io, and is priced at roughly $10 while channeling sales proceeds toward laid-off game developers. The campaign is framed as a solidarity effort within the industry during a time of layoffs.
