Each day, ETX Studio puts the spotlight on a number that stands out for making headlines in one way or another. Today, it's the US$2mil (RM8.5mil) that independent video game retailer Itch.io raised for civil rights nonprofits over the weekend thanks to its US$5 (RM21) collection Bundle For Racial Justice and Equality and the 564 studios committing 742 games to it.

When site founder Leaf Corcoran called for contributions to the Bundle For Racial Justice and Equality (itch.io/b/520) last week, he might not have anticipated over 560 studios taking part.
