Indigenous people have a long history of collaborating on the creation of video games. It has only been with the release of Never Alone though that broad media attention has been paid to these projects. There have been a growing number of game gatherings and community organizing around Indigenous games happening in the United States and Canada. Indigenous creators of video games have been featured in the DIGITAL MEDIA ART+CADE as part of imagineNATIVE and in Memories of the Future/Souvenirs du futur at SAW Video Media Art Centre in Ottawa.

Video games created by Indigenous people enable the creators to self-determine how they are represented and enables Indigenous people to picture themselves in the future.
