Want to say hey? Got something you reckon we should know about? An indie game, new single, upcoming film, strange little project, story idea, or something you’ve made that you cannot stop talking about?
Tell us.
We cover games, music, film, TV, live events and whatever else wanders into our orbit and sets the neurons firing. We also welcome feedback, pitches, collaboration ideas, media enquiries and the occasional enthusiastic rant about something you desperately need another human being to understand.
Pick the inbox that makes the most sense below. If you’re not sure where something belongs, send it to hello@unrulyfolk.com. We’ll work it out.
General
Questions, collaborations, feedback, pitches that don’t quite fit anywhere else, or something you’re currently staring at and thinking, is this too weird to send them?
Probably not.
Games & Indie Devs
Making a game? We want to hear about it.
We cover everything from tiny indie projects and demos through to larger releases, with a particular soft spot for interesting ideas, passionate teams, accessibility, queer stories and developers willing to try something that might not have worked before.
Review builds, codes, announcements, interview opportunities and game-related enquiries can come here:
And yes, you can absolutely tell us why you care about the thing you made. We like that bit.
Music & Gigs
New releases, tour announcements, live shows, interviews, photography opportunities, emerging artists, established favourites and songs that may result in us playing the same three minutes of audio for the next 5–10 business days.
You know the drill.
We’re based in Boorloo (Perth, WA), so we’re particularly keen to hear about shows and artists coming through Western Australia, but our coverage is absolutely not limited to our own backyard.
Film, TV & Screen Things
Films, series, documentaries, shorts, animation, screeners, interviews and interesting things happening on screens of various sizes all live here:
If Winona Ryder is involved, somebody should probably warn us in advance.
For journalistic reasons.
Obviously.
Want to Write With Us?
Unruly Folk was built to make more room for voices that entertainment media has historically been very good at overlooking.
If you’re neurodivergent, queer, disabled, alternative, or have a perspective you think deserves more space, we’d love to hear what you want to write about.
You do not need to sound like us.
Actually, please don’t try to.
We want your experience, your interests and your voice. “Nothing about us without us” matters here, and nobody can tell your story quite the way you can.
We offer paid opportunities, support from the team and access to our contributor Discord newsroom.
If email makes your brain immediately say absolutely not, you can also message us on Instagram.

More things will inevitably appear when we have the time, energy and executive function to build them.
Sending Us Physical Things
If you want to send us something physical, email us first and we can provide our postal details.
We’re based in Boorloo (Perth, Western Australia), with contributors currently spread across Australia, the Czech Republic, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Which is still a little wild to think about.
A Tiny Note About Replies
Unruly Folk is independent and run by actual humans.
We do our best to reply, but sometimes life happens, health happens, work happens, or an inbox quietly reproduces overnight when nobody is looking.
If we’re a little slow, thank you for being patient with us.
And thank you for wanting to send us something in the first place. Whether you’ve made a game, written a song, filmed something beautiful, got a story you want to tell, or simply wanted to say hey, we’re genuinely glad you found our strange little corner of the internet.
Stay unruly.
Dani, Mike + the Unruly Folk crew
