Title: Global Game Jam 2012
Post by: Apostrophe Spacemonkey on January 06, 2012, 12:51:35 pm
Global Game Jam is being held at the end of this month from January 27-29.

It's a world wide event, where people get together and make a game. People who attend cover a whole range of skills like programming, writing, design, music, art etc


I went last year and it was awesome, you get given the game theme when you arrive, then you form a team and make a game in 48 hours (Firday 5pm to Sunday 5pm).


This year it's being held in 4 locations in New Zealand, Auckland, Hamilton, Wellignton and Christchurch. You can sign up here http://globalgamejam.org/

For Aucklanders, the Monday is Anniversary Day, which give you a best of time to rest afterwards (or play the games eveyone has made).
