Cryptic Paw Gaming’s Mission

One of Alice’s foremost passions in life is game design and experiencing amazing video games! In her time at college, she was educated in all the aspects of how exactly video games were made. Knowing this great difficulty, Alice finds that some of the best games out there are actually games that are crafted by indie creators.

Alice strives to help out these indie game developers by gaining them exposure and giving them advice on how to further hone their craft after playing their games on her YouTube channel!

It all circles back to the Cryptic Paw value of artists helping artists!
