Code Coven, the first award-winning accelerator for marginalised game developers, has been nominated for the Community Organisation Award for Gender at The National Diversity Awards 2022.

Britain’s most inspirational and selfless people will come together to honour the rich tapestry of our nation, recognising individuals and groups from grassroots communities. The prestigious black-tie event recognises nominees in their respective fields of diversity including age, disability, gender, race, faith, religion, and sexual orientation.

Tara Mustapha, CEO & Founder of Code Coven says “I’ve borne witness to non-men having to prove their ‘gamer credentials’ to be in the room, being passed over for jobs and promotions even though they are more qualified than their cis male counterparts, being paid less than them too, being tokenised at gaming events, and not given the investment in their self-development or in their own companies. So what drives me, is simple – what would this look like if it were easy?

I have never felt so fulfilled, so delighted – it brings me such joy to start seeing people be able to realise themselves and their own capacity. For me, it’s that I can see such talent and possibility – and to see people be able to see that in themselves is breathtaking.”

Code Coven’s prestige is being recognised across multiple categories. Submit your votes and join the 60,000 votes received annually by the National Diversity Awards:

  • Code Coven – Community Organisation Award for Gender

  • Tara Mustapha (CEO & Founder) – Entrepreneur of Excellence

  • Karla Reyes (Head of Business Development) – Positive Role Model Award for Race, Religion & Faith

  • Alisha Standing (PR Consultant) – Positive Role Model Award for Race, Religion & Faith

  • Lauren Moses (Community Manager) – Positive Role Model Award for Gender

 

Since their pilot course in 2019, Code Coven has empowered people of marginalised genders from over 35 countries around the world with subsidised education, tailor-matched mentorship with industry leaders, and a genuinely supportive community who uplift each other.

Voting is now open and closes Friday 20th  May  2022 – so don’t miss out on your chance to get involved!

Rapidly expanding content provider takes players on a thrilling anime journey in Infinity Pull

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming invites players to embark on an enchanting anime adventure with the launch of the mesmerising Infinity Pull. Step into a vibrant realm where three captivating goddesses await, each offering unique gameplay and winning opportunities.

Infinity Pull gives players unparalleled control over their gaming experience, enabling them to choose their path from the outset. Players select one of three enchanting waifus: the Blue, Purple, or the Golden. Each waifu represents a different volatility level, with the RTP ranging from 92 to 99%.

Gacha gameplay mechanics were the main inspiration behind Infinity Pull, with the BGaming design team drawing on their love of the genre. The game asks players to wager on cards revealed by the chosen waifu. These cards can award exciting multipliers and instant cash prizes, as well as collectable characters. The game’s unique collection aspect makes it endlessly replayable, with players eager to return and complete their sets. Every 25 duplicate cards collected also reveal an additional chapter of the chosen waifu’s bio, enriching the game’s narrative experience.

Beyond its unique gameplay and mechanics, Infinity Pull also offers flexibility for operators, with the game’s reskinnable design making it perfect for seasonal promotions and themed events.

Alex Baliukonis, Game Design Team Lead at BGaming, said: “We can’t wait to see how players react to what we have achieved with Infinity Pull. What’s great about it is that you don’t need to have ever played a gacha game to enjoy it. It can be picked up and played by anyone.

At BGaming, we are always trying to push the boundaries and try something new. We believe Infinity Pull has the potential to really capture the imagination of players and inspire a whole new take on casual gaming.”
