Game Republic

Head of Games for Kickstarter at GR Online Event

Kickstarter head of games, Asher McClennahan will be joining an exclusive Game Republic online webinar on 19th February at 5pm sharing insights and tips for game developers looking to fundraise on the platform. The event forms part of Game Republic’s programme of events for 2026 supported by Official Partners Red Kite GamesXsolla and Double Eleven.

Asher brings a decade of experience in tech, from leading operations and product at a Y Combinator-backed action camera company to developing immersive digital experiences for tabletop RPGs at Alchemy RPG. With a passion for helping creators increase their visibility, Asher has worked closely with game makers to amplify their reach. Having moved 13 times before age 12, he’s learned to adapt, connect, and find community everywhere—an ethos he now bring to supporting game creators on Kickstarter.

MD of Game Republic Jamie Sefton said “Asher joined the Game Republic New Horizons event in October 2025 and many developers fed back on the practical advice they gained in the session and meeting him in person. We are delighted he has agreed to join us for this GR online event which I am sure will bring some really useful insights to members of the Game Republic network – providing a topline view on how to optimise campaigns and new opportunities on this platform that has provided so much support to game developers”
