International Game Developers Association

The Memorials project is undertaken by members of the IGDA's Game Preservation SIG to document obituaries and provide a space for memorials of past developers, players and other figures important to the industry.
Project Information
Work is being undertaken to add all known memorial subjects to the project, if any are missing please contact the project at memorials - at - igda.org. You can also provide a complete memorial entry yourself, instead of letting the team investigate it.

- Devin Monnens (Lead)
- Andrew Armstrong
- Henry Lowood
