What's the (Origin) Point? We've put a little video together to answer that question. Over the next few months we'll be sharing our favourite games made in Africa. Follow, and who knows, maybe #africanvideogamedev becomes a thing.

👀 We’ve kept you guessing long enough... On Monday, we dropped the first clue. Today, we’re opening the doors. Welcome to OPG! The website is now LIVE. originpointgames.com
