A membership community for game developers exploring cooperative models.
Ghost Guild grew out of Baby Ghosts, a Canadian nonprofit that's been advancing cooperative and worker-centric models in the game industry since 2023.
Developers interested in co-op practice had few places to learn, connect, and figure things out alongside others doing the same work. Ghost Guild is that place: a membership community for developers at every stage of cooperative practice, with resources, events, and peers to learn from.
We don't prescribe a single model. We're here to explore the options, learn from people who've tried them, and build something that works for your team.
For anyone exploring cooperative models.
For people actively building cooperatives.
For experienced practitioners sharing what they know.
Membership is $0–50/month, pay what you can. Nobody is excluded for lack of funds. Your contribution supports infrastructure, events, and community resources.
We gather in Slack, at monthly meetings, and through peer support sessions. The wiki is our shared knowledge base — growing as members contribute. Events range from workshops to social hangs to deep-dive series.
