Global Game Jam 2012
« on: January 30, 2012, 03:21:26 am »
For those of you that don't know, Global Game Jam was on again this weekend (and probably still is for some jam sites). It's basically an event where teams from all around the world make games in 48 hours. Everybody is given the same theme at 5pm local time on Friday and then spends the rest of the weekend making the game. Visit http://globalgamejam.org/ for more info.

So anyways, I participated for the first time this year, and I had an amazing time. I met lots of new people and saw some amazing games created.

My game can be downloaded here, http://globalgamejam.org/2012/toob-racer and I'm working on getting a file up that will just contain the game itself, with no source code. Also, the game only runs on windows, so if you're using a Mac or Linux, you won't be able to play it.

If you want to check out some other games http://globalgamejam.org/sites/2012/game-jam-wollongong-2012 is a list of all the games created at my site. Or you can go to http://globalgamejam.org/games to see all the games made for the GGJ2012.

Did anybody else participate? If so, I'd love to check out your games.

EDIT: A game only download link is up on the page.
