High Elo Girls changes
Hiya! It’s been a while, hasn’t it?
There’s been quite a few changes happening at the studio, but we’re all still working very hard to make High Elo Girls (HEG) happen! Let’s get into those updates, shall we?
Let’s start with…
New Party Members!
The small team of two has now grown to a team of six! Dee has brought on a few new people to work on HEG. The full dev team for HEG is listed below:
Dani Dee: Project Director, Narrative & Gameplay Designer, Lead Writer, Programmer Joe Byrne: Art Director, Character & UI Designer, Lead Illustrator, Writer
✨ NEW! ✨ Numinous: Lead Systems Designer ✨ NEW! ✨ Vivi Contrast: Communications Manager ✨ NEW! ✨ Jules Riseling: UI Artist ✨ NEW! ✨ Pinga Penguin: Background Artist
So, what have we been up to?
Split Fate has actually been presented or featured at several events in the past few months! Here’s where we’ve been:
LUDONARRACON
High Elo Girls was featured at Ludonarracon back in May! We put together a super cool dev commentary video that was broadcasted on Steam, which you can now watch on the Split Fate YouTube channel.
DIGIPRIDE
Dee was invited to speak on a Digipride panel about HEG! They were also joined by other queer game developers from studios like Lunaris Games, Veritable Joy, Soft Not Weak, and more. You can watch the full panel VOD on Gayming Magazine’s official YouTube channel.
GAME DEVS OF COLOR EXPO
Dee is hosting a panel at Game Devs of Color Expo happening Sept 15-18! They’ll be talking with other amazing Black developers like Dani Lalonders (ValiDate: Struggling Singles in Your Area), Geneva Harward (Skate & Date) and owl (Belle Automata) about how and why they make games.
As a bonus, I (Vivi) will be joining Dee to talk further about HEG with the host of GDoC, Sharpie!
Am I excited? Hell yeah!
But am I also nervous? Hell Yeah.
GAYMING LIVE
We're showcasing the new HEG demo during the Gayming Live Steam Event, and Dee will also be on a panel with other game devs!
Yes, Dee’s one busy person, but they’re doing a great job and we support them. We’re proud of them. ♥️
New Quest Objective!
We just launched a revamped version of our demo! We've added a brand new UI to the game, and cleaned up some of the Strife messages. If you haven’t met all of your teammates yet, now’s the perfect time to do so!
As always, thank you for showing so much love and support for our little fan-game-turned-full-fictional-game. Please look forward to the full game launching Spring 2023!

Cheers, Vivi, Communications Manager Split Fate Studios
