Google personal projects policy (specifically game dev)?

What is Google's policy regarding employee's personal projects? I'm specifically interested in game development. At Meta there's a formal conflicts process, and generally solo game dev type projects (eg. if I wanted to make a little mobile game and release it on iOS/Android) are approved. What's Google's position on these kinds of personal projects? #google

They don't need to know anything. As long as you don't use your work computer for it and work on your personal project on company time, i don't see a reason why they would care. They don't own your free time.

Google has the same type of process as Meta.
