"I started playing Hay Day way before I joine♎d Supercell, and it felt like a warm hug," Avellar explained. "It felt like games I played and loved growing up, and I dreamed of one day working on something like that. Now I get to contribute t♚o improving the game and a genre that’s really special to me."

During the discussion with Google, she ꩲalso brought up one of the keys to crafting a brilliant game – diversity. As a woman in the games industry, Avellar mentioned that she often brings a different perspective to the team♔.

"Entertainment helps shape a person’s unique perspective, and a lot of the stuff I enjoyed growing up was targeted towards girls. This has allowed me to draw on different refer🌳ences and thought processes than many people who work in games. I believe that having people from different backgrounds, genders, and mindsets – all with different ideas and experiences – can enrich a team and expand its horizon."

That sentiment is echoed by , senior director of business development of Kabam, and , managing director of Bandai Namco. Udagawa said Bandai ♚Namco holds "gender equality in high respect," and that it's important to "champion an environment where employees can utilize their talent, without worrying about how their work style is impacting their career path." As for Luke, she believes it's key to enter the industry w💦ith "an open mind and a commitment to growth."

"By approaching these situations with the mindset that I ꦛwill learn and develop, and be the better for it, I'm remi🍸nded of why I love games. Games place us into unknown and unfamiliar environments, and we keep trying until we get it right. There’s no doubt that sometimes my career seems like an extraordinary game."
