Its unfortunate geography became apparent in 1953, when a heavy storm surge in the North Sea caused major flooding across Lincolnshire and other parts of eastern England, killing 307 people.
There has been a marked shift in the video game industry’s approach to the climate crisis over the past five years, with a growing level of transparency from some of the world’s largest developers and publishers such as Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo.
Industry events provide one of the few chances for studios like Die Gute Fabrik to meet with publishers and platforms who might help fund and distribute their games, Dr Nicklin notes.
In 2023, France’s Centre national du cinéma (CNC), which is responsible for subsidising the production of video games, announced a regulatory change that requires any studio applying for funds to provide a carbon emissions plan.
JYROS allows this assessment, taking into account the hardware and software used to play games, evaluating its energy draw at a granular level, and combining it with geography of the buyers to estimate total climate costs.
By undertaking a full accounting of its own carbon footprint, Dr Abraham says Die Gute Fabrik is providing the indie development community with ways to tackle their emissions — and generate further momentum to get the games industry to net zero.
