Early life

Code grew up outside Vancouver, British Columbia.[1] She graduated from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science[2] in 2001.[3]

Career

Code worked for many years at Ubisoft Montreal, managing programming teams on games such as Assassin's Creed II. She was often the only woman on a team.[4] Her award-winning downloadable faerie game Child of Light featured a female protagonist and a 25 percent female developer team.[5]

She now runs a game studio called Tru Luv which creates experimental games focused on care and characters. In #SelfCare, a virtual bedroom is filled with calming tasks, such as reading a book, tending to a plant or sorting laundry by colour. She said "the most valuable thing a game can do for me: make me forget why I’m angry."[6] [7] #SelfCare was named in Apple’s Best of 2018 Trends of the Year.[8]
