Introduction[edit]

Founded by Chris "Xrs" Karpousis, WhoCares Games is distinguished by its shared ambitions and a profound love for gaming, emphasizing mutual knowledge sharing and innovation..[1].
History[edit]
The origins of WhoCares Games trace back to an unofficial gathering of talented individuals from Greece, aimed at supporting each other and taking on collaborative projects. This initiative officially solidified into WhoCares Games following the creation of WaveTiles, the studio's debut title, during the Global Game Jam in 2017. The game's development and subsequent release underscored the collective's mission to demonstrate the potential for high-quality game development within Greece and inspire local talent to pursue their dreams domestically[2]
Philosophy and Purpose[edit]
At its core, WhoCares Games operates on the belief that knowledge is power. The collective fosters a culture of learning, skill enhancement, and collaborative success. By emphasizing dedication, passion, and the joy of game development, WhoCares Games aims to be more than just a development studio; it seeks to be a sanctuary where aspiring game developers can thrive, supported by a community that values growth, innovation, and the artistry of game creation.
Projects[edit]
- WaveTiles: A cooperative puzzle-platformer that challenges players to navigate through levels using a unique mechanic of colored energy waves. Released in August 2021, the game exemplifies the collective's focus on collaboration, creativity, and pushing the boundaries of traditional game design[3]
Industry Impact and Community Engagement[edit]
WhoCares Games not only aims to produce innovative games but also to contribute to the broader game development community. Through sharing knowledge, experiences, and supporting emerging talent, the collective plays a vital role in nurturing the next generation of game developers, particularly within the Greek gaming ecosystem.
