Gameflo is a Black-owned indie gaming company on a mission to nurture imagination, build community, and make learning fun! We design culturally-relevant games and experiences for communities.
Our Story
IN THE BEGINNING
We (Chi & Ian) began GameFlo wanting to increase access to essential skills in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) and bridge the digital divide with a focus on pre-teens and teenagers. What we soon discovered was that people don’t want to feel like they are learning. They wanted to play the games we introduced in our workshops and to interact with each other. So we decided to focus on creating culturally-relevant games. Games that can enter any space and hold their own. Games that inspire.
WHERE WE ARE GOING
Since then, we have expanded our creative team to include trusted advisors like Errol and Glenn and welcomed Syeeda to join our leadership team. We focused our efforts on PickUp, the basketball card game we created that was a slam dunk with everyone who played it. Now, after 2+ years of iterations, we are ready to take PickUp to the world!
AND BEYOND
But PickUp is nowhere near the one and only. Our team’s passion for bringing compelling gaming to tabletops will fuel more projects and help fund GameFlo as we explore digital possibilities and deepen our work in the community.
