Welcome to Every Game a Playground

A newsletter exploring creation within communities and their favourite games.

Written by me, Jonathan Dodd, Every Game a Playground looks at the different gaming communities who are redefining play through mods, custom content, videos, ARGs, fan fiction, and more. With a specific focus on User-Generated Content (UGC), I talk directly with the creatives responsible for their work, while also providing my own opinions and expertise from 10 years of working in game development.

If you are a creator, developer, artist, modder, or fan that is part of a gaming community which you think is cool and worth talking about, I'd love to hear your story. You can reach me on Twitter or Bluesky, or via email (coming soon).
