This COVID-19 Gameathon initiative is really cool! I think it's amazing when the gaming world can help raise awareness and support people.
Speaking of games, although I'm not really involved in the development, I really enjoy playing Counter-Strike and opening cases on cs2 case opening platforms to get unique skins and customize my weapons. It's always good to have a fun place to unwind after so much serious stuff, right?
