Levelling up the gaming scene

The Hindu  

Jaya Lakshmi watches from the balcony of her third-floor apartment in Kukatpally, a suburban area of Hyderabad, as her children wave goodbye from their school bus. As the tasks in the games reach higher levels of difficulty, she willingly invests anywhere between ₹100 and ₹250 to purchase ‘extra lives’ or in-game assistance, oblivious to the fact that these seemingly small sums contribute to the billion-dollar revenue generated annually by the gaming industry worldwide. Speaking on the gender bias in the online gaming space, Sweta Chakraborty, a concept artist for games who designs characters/skins etc., says that the online Indian gaming space still harbours toxicity for women. However, when it comes to work, it is literally a minimum eight-hour job with frequent overtime and it can get as crushing as a regular 9-5 corporate job at times, say game developers across the board in the city.<SU> Along the IT corridor of Hyderabad, the Image Tower being built by the Sattva Group in collaboration with the Telangana government stands as a tall symbol of the city’s burgeoning gaming ecosystem. While the latest GST regime that was implemented in October 2023 came as a setback to the real gaming industry, it hasn’t deterred gamers in India from engaging in ‘pay to play’ models.
