Blog - Global Game Jam 2010: The Aftermath...

Sunday, January 31, 2010

Wow, that was a trip. Global Game Jam was awesome.
Liked it last year, but this one was definitely more fun than last time -- not doing code is much less stressful. ;) But more than that, I'm super proud of the game my team developed!

Check it out:
The Sun Always Lies


Not that the Global Game Jam is meant to be competitive, but the Albany location decided to have people vote on the best game anyway, and had awards to give out.

...And "The Sun Always Lies" won 3 awards!



Yay! I'm honored!

Blog - Global Game Jam 2010


I'm once again participating in the global game jam.

That's why I'm awake at 2:45 am, on my computer... ;)


I'm extremely excited about how the game my team is developing is coming along. Will post a link here when it's over!

Blog - Global Game Jam

Monday, February 2, 2009

Well, what an insane weekend.

Knowing there's a drought of programming talent at SCAD I volunteered to be a programmer for a team. A decision I later regretted somewhat as code definitely is not my strongest skill area in game development.
A game jam is difficult enough as is, and now I had to carry an entire team as the sole member of the programming department. So, the experience was especially intense on my end.

I will now have that much more respect for any programmer I work with in the future now. ;)
(Not that I took them lightly before this experience. In a game development department filled with only designers and artists, we at SCAD find programmers to be a precious, precious commodity)

In any case, here's the game my team made:
Gaseous.

Blog - Weekly Game: ....my game for the Global Game Jam.

Saturday, January 31, 2009

As I'm participating in the Global Game Jam, I'm going to count the game I'm making for that as my weekly game this week.

The game jam is already insane enough. ;)
