gamer girls

After 2 weeks of decompression, the team talk about all the behind-the-scenes shenanigans and ordeals surrounding the live show we performed in Cardiff on the 9th of September.

From the heights of giddy euphoria to the depths of biblical arduousity, we had quite an experience to conquer our first ever live show!

GTS is very proud to present our first ever in-person live show! We were invited to perform live at the Cardiff Anime and Comic Con on 9th September. 

We went back to our roots and talked about how haming and feminism intersect. We had a friendly crowd and the event itself was wonderful and we're very proud of the show we put on. 

P.S. We've recorded and edited the audio as best we can, so hopefully it isn't too jarring to listen to.

The GTS gang discuss all things video game music, how it has the power not only to enhance, but to shape our gaming experiences. They also take time to reflect on the barriers that the music industry poses to female composers and why we should care about VGM in its own right!

Jem, Alex and Matt explore the topic of anger. What are our opinions on anger? How is women's anger portrayed in games? Quite personal and intense, but a very important conversation for GTS to tackle.

Non-Violent games make up only a fraction of the gaming world, especially compared to massive AAA franchises like Call of Duty  Fortnite, The Last of Us. Why is this? Why does  it matter?

What is in a name? The GTS team talks "Girl Gamer" versus "Gamer Girl". How can the same two words hold such different meanings? Is the Gamer Girl aesthetic all about pink and animal ears, a product of our culture, an example of female empowerment, or all or none of the above? Does it even matter? In a conversation that starts with "Are you a Gamer girl?" and ends with "What if men took contraceptives?" Could this be our most wide-ranging episode yet!?
