Women are increasingly elevating the gaming industry – whether it's advocating for more inclusion and diversity or developing games meant for all types of players. One such woman is Brenda Romero, who is not only a game developer, but also created her own game company, Romero Games, in 2015.

"It's more accessible to create games now compared to then" | Brenda Romero on game design
Although Romero has won countless accolades — such as a BAFTA Special Award, the 2013 Women in Games Lifetime Achievement Award and the 2017 Development Legend Award — she said one of her greatest accomplishments has been creating her gaming company with husband John Romero. She believes it is a long-lasting legacy she can leave behind.
"It feels good to try to create the kind of environment that you wish you could always work in and to try to have that environment for people," Romero told Lifewire over the phone. "I enjoy making people feel valued."
Since she was a child, Romero has been creating games, collecting bits and pieces of board games she bought at garage sales and using them to make her own games.
