Karr previously worked in publishing and strategic partnerships for Riot Games and Activision Blizzard Media Network.

Evva Karr and Nicolaas VanMeerten began GLITCH as a student group while attending the University of Minnesota Twin Cities.

[1] Karr and VanMeerten bootstrapped the studio by making white-labeled games, producing work for companies like PBS, Disney, and Warner Brothers to avoid bringing in investors.

GLITCH cited the challenges for independent game developers in early production and access to actionable insights as primary reasons for launching the funds.

[8] GLITCH launched the Founder's Kit in 2020 to provide knowledge sharing resources for startup studios and game developers.

[9] It contains three sections: Pacts, Covenants, & Treaties, which includes templates of actual documents such as mutual NDAs, contractor deals, and founder's agreements for developer's reference; Business Structures, which lists the information intended to help developers identify an optimal business structure in the context of their goals; and Pitch Decks, a curated collection of presentations from game creators and the outcomes of each sample.

[6] The company produced a showcase inspired by Adult Swim's late-night television programming block Toonami, highlighting creators and new modes of play.

[10] GLITCH collaborated with 3D artist Sakura Rabbit to design and build android Vtuber, Melios, to host the show.
