Introducing, Isa!

My name is Isa and I am a nonbinary German-Japanese 2D and concept artist. After a short stint in marketing as a copywriter, I pivoted to a career in the games industry as a freelancer, mainly working with indie studios such as Midnight Circus Games and Roofkat.

I recently joined Achtung Autobahn, a worker’s cooperative game studio currently in the founding process. Without the support of other game devs from marginalised groups I wouldn’t be where I am today—which made me realise how important it is to create inclusive spaces and communities. This led me to join the organisational team of Fem Devs Meetup, a German non-profit community for women and other marginalised groups in the games industry. I am honoured to be part of the 2025 cohort and super stoked to meet the other Valkyries and to make a game together! Many thanks to the sponsors and organizers for making this possible!
