Hello fellow developers and gamers!
Previously we had great bundles for causes which turned out really successful in helping the cause. So what do you say we create one for the current worrying events happening in Ukraine?
I've never organized a co-hosted bundle before especially of this size so I guess we can co-operate on this one, of course this applies to anyone interested in this idea.
Here I found a list of organizations accepting the donations.
#StandWithUkraine
I've just noticed that someone is starting a TTRPG bundle to support the Ukrainian Red Cross.

I'm personally happy to be in any (several) relevant bundle.
I am really humbled by the already big outreach the TTRPG bundle initiative has got. Great work!
I would like to emphasize that we as a community are having better chances putting a single unified itch.io bundle than diversifying. Let's stay united in this cause and try to reach out to as many people and developers out there so that itch.io platform holders notice our initiative and do something about it.
I am pretty sure here we have a potential of generating multimillion dollar donation for this cause and I would guess there are legal hoops for giving that sum of donation, especially through itch.io platform as a mediator between transactions, therefore I think we better have it done by itch like the bundles before it. But hey... who am I to say I am just an ordinary hobby dev who haven't done fundraisers.

I am terrible with Twitter.
Maybe some of you that use it could add proper tags?
Looks like the efforts have been moved here https://itch.io/t/1964844/bundle-for-ukraine-call-for-submissions
At least this looks like it will be the unified bundle but sadly without itch.io hosting it. Nevertheless this is more morally correct decision than initial push to have separate bundles.
Thanks everyone for the support. Looking forward to super successful bundle and your awesome games! <3

Most of you probably already know, but just to be sure the bundle is live here https://itch.io/b/1316/bundle-for-ukraine
Support it, share it, embrace it!
