A membership community for game developers exploring cooperative business models.
Ghost Guild grew out of Baby Ghosts, a Canadian nonprofit that's been supporting indie game developers since 2018. We noticed a gap: game developers interested in cooperative models had nowhere to learn, practice, and connect with others doing the same work.
Ghost Guild is the response — a membership program where developers at every stage of cooperative practice can find resources, events, mentorship, and community.
We don't prescribe a single model. We're a place to explore the options, learn from people who've tried them, and build something that works for your team.
For anyone exploring cooperative models. Wiki access, public events, Slack community, monthly meetings.
For people actively building cooperatives. Peer accelerator, mentorship, governance templates.
For experienced practitioners. Mentoring, teaching, shaping the program direction.
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.
Ghost Guild is a program of Baby Ghosts, a Canadian nonprofit advancing cooperative models in game development. No tracking. No ads. No venture capital.
