TGJ + Safe In Our World

We are ending this Mental Health month by continuing.


The Great Journey is a new and growing community and we not only have the opportunity to help studios thrive, but we also have the opportunity to help new and young studios to start more sustainable.

Mental ill-health is growing, Ukie revealed that anxiety and depression rates in games are higher than that of the general population. Anxiety sufferers make up 25% of the industry, whilst those with depression are close behind at 21%.
Adding to this, existing research suggests that rates of mental ill-health are higher among LGBTQ+ people. With LGBTQ+ accounting for 21% of the industry workforce, cases of ill mental health are potentially abundant.

Even if these numbers are for the UK, the Swedish games industry also suffers from this. We in The Great Journey want to build a more sustainable games industry and see our partnership with Safe In Our World and their #levelupmentalhealth initiative as a great way to keep ourselves accountable and offer our studios the best conditions to create healthy and sustainable studios.

Being part of this initiative we commit to:

  1. Over the next 12 months, commit to taking the first steps to roll out a mental health support system within your company.

  2. Join Safe In Our World as a partner and commit to supporting Mental Health within the industry.

  3. Help us ensure our teams and players know where support can be found, through sharing messaging and signposting to support.


We might be at the beginning of our journey and want to lead by example so we have downloaded the toolkit and will work with it this summer (both internally and for our studios) and offering our Community Manager and Communications Manager the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge about mental health for the community through the Community Management Mental Health training programme during work hours (still waiting for confirmation about the application).

UV stabilizers are chemical additives used to protect materials from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Sunlight, while essential for life, can degrade plastics, coatings, textiles, and other materials over time, causing fading, brittleness, and loss of strength. UV stabilizers help extend the life and appearance of these products by absorbing or blocking UV rays.

What are UV Stabilizers?

UV stabilizers are compounds added to polymers and coatings during manufacturing to enhance their resistance to sunlight. When exposed to UV light, materials can undergo photo-degradation, breaking down at a molecular level. UV stabilizers prevent or slow this process, keeping products durable and attractive for longer.

These additives are widely used in industries such as automotive, construction, packaging, agriculture, and textiles.

Food cold chain logistics refers to the temperature-controlled supply chain process used to maintain the quality and safety of perishable food products from the point of origin to the final consumer. This system includes refrigerated production, storage, transportation, and distribution stages to preserve food freshness and prevent spoilage. The cold chain is vital for items such as dairy products, meat, seafood, fruits, vegetables, and frozen foods. Any break in the cold chain can result in product degradation, foodborne illnesses, or significant economic losses. Technologies such as GPS-enabled temperature monitoring, insulated containers, and smart sensors are increasingly being used to ensure continuous temperature regulation throughout the logistics cycle.

The growing global demand for fresh and frozen food products, coupled with stricter food…

A space-qualified propellant tank is a critical component in spacecraft propulsion systems, specifically designed to store and deliver fuel or oxidizer in the harsh conditions of space. These tanks are engineered to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations, intense vibrations during launch, and the vacuum of space, all while maintaining structural integrity and leak-proof performance. Depending on the mission requirements, they may carry hypergolic propellants, cryogenic fuels like liquid hydrogen or oxygen, or green propellants. Materials such as aluminum-lithium alloys, titanium, and composite materials like carbon fiber-reinforced polymers are commonly used due to their high strength-to-weight ratios and corrosion resistance.

To be classified as "space-qualified," a propellant tank must pass rigorous testing protocols including thermal cycling, pressure testing, vibration, and shock testing to…
