A global community helping Nova Scotia succeed.
Global Bluenosers is rallying Nova Scotians around the world behind The Button Man, a Halifax-inspired game and comic series created by Styrax Studios.
Global Bluenosers connects Nova Scotians around the world to champion the region’s stories, creators, businesses, and innovation. Together, the community helps local ideas reach a global audience while strengthening pride in Nova Scotia.
A platform that turns pride into opportunity.
Global Bluenosers is building a global community that does more than celebrate Nova Scotia. It actively helps the province’s most compelling stories, creators, businesses, and innovations earn visibility, build connections, and reach wider markets.
The Button Man
The Button Man is a Halifax-inspired 1920s Prohibition-era murder mystery told through an interactive narrative game and original comic series.
Created by Styrax Studios, the project draws on Nova Scotia’s history, architecture, harbour, social character, and atmosphere to build an original entertainment property for audiences around the world.
Through this campaign, The Button Man becomes more than an entertainment project. It becomes a practical demonstration of how the Global Bluenosers community can help a locally created commercial venture attract sponsorship, expand its visibility, and reach international audiences.
A commercial creative property rooted in Halifax and designed to grow across formats.
A story built from the character of Nova Scotia.
The campaign brings together interactive storytelling, comic art, recognizable Atlantic settings, and a rich cast of characters to create a world audiences can explore and remember.
Sponsor one venture. Help build a lasting platform.
Contributing to the campaign will not simply fund a game and comic series. It will help commercialize a distinctly Nova Scotian creative property while demonstrating how Global Bluenosers can mobilize its international community around promising local ideas.
Sponsors gain association with an original Nova Scotia story, its creative talent, and a broader community initiative designed to help the province succeed globally.
Sponsor The Button Man.
From individual supporters to founding corporate partners, every sponsorship helps bring a Nova Scotia-created game and comic universe to the world—and helps establish a model for future Global Bluenosers campaigns.
