The Summer of Pride 2020 Steam sale is now underway, with discounts of up to 80 per cent on queer-positive games including Outer Wilds (which will launch in the midst of the sale, on 18June ), Gone Home, Tacoma, and more according to PC gamer.
“We want everyone experience the range of diversity bubbling just below the surface of gaming, whether that’s by getting hands-on with the games or watching a beautiful array of diverse streamers find pieces of themselves in the works of queer developers. Spotlighting creators and media with positive LGBTQ+ representation in characters and storylines saves lives by showing queer youths they are not alone,” said Read Only Memories: Neurodiver developer MidBoss CEO Cade Peterson who organised the Summer of Pride event.
The sale is indie-focused, but there are better-known games in the bunch as well:
- Monster Prom 2: Monster Camp,
- Sayonara Wild Hearts (This one is great),
