Floodlight Gaming unveils investigative journalism games at the 2026 Indigo Showcase on Bluesky Social, marking a new frontier for immersive reporting.

The 2026 Indigo Showcase on Bluesky Social (@indigo-showcase.bsky.social) will feature two playable prototypes from Floodlight Gaming—*Dark Money* and *Hunting the Hunter*—designed to transform high-stakes investigative journalism into interactive experiences, according to a post by the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) . The showcase, centered on entertainment and digital innovation, will host a roundtable on June 2 titled *"Transforming High-Stakes Reporting into Interactive Experiences,"* followed by the announcement of the 2026 Investigative Journalism Game Jam winner.

Floodlight Gaming’s projects aim to engage audiences in complex reporting through gameplay, blending investigative narratives with interactive design. The event underscores a growing trend of merging journalism with gaming to enhance public engagement with critical issues. No further details on the Game Jam’s participants or judging criteria have been released.
