Ever since the COVID-19 Pandemic ripped through the world in early 2020, there has been an unprecedented generation of children and young adults that were caught in the isolation of world-wide quarantine. These young souls are known as the Pandemic Generation or "Covid Kids".
With their most developmental years of their life being spent indoors, separated from school, friends, and often even family, this generation has been impacted severely in terms of social health. Many spent years growing up indoors, resorting to phone calls and texting to keep their spirits up.
Obviously, isolation took a toll on social health on everyone. Most of all, however, were our kids.
We need supporters willing to dedicate part of their skills and time to promote socialization in these children and young adults.
Douglas, with you experience uniting a community of young viewers on twitch, and your coding/programming experience, and the charisma of a nation's leader, Greek Games wants you to be one of those supporters, willing to bring back the trusting community of teens.
Not just by presenting games such as Peloponnesian Pacifist, but with the dignity and passion you have shown everyone, in order to take our initiative and Mission to the real world.
