Summer Game Jam a Success!

Thanks to everyone that came to the Game Jam! The event was an absolute blast, and I am totally boggled at the games that were achieved in such a short timeframe. Congratulations! We had about 50 people who came together and created eight brand-new games in one weekend, all on the theme of “Twice Upon a Time”. To see everyone’s games, check the July 2011 Games link on the left.

We’ll probably be having a wrap-up meeting about the Game Jam at the next STL GameDev meetup. Note that the location for the meetup group is changing, and does not yet have a new permanent home, so the next meetup, at least, will be Monday, August 1st, 7 p.m. at the Simutronics offices. For more info, be sure to join the stlgamedev Meetup group:

I can’t wait for the next Game Jam! Mark your calendars for the next one, which will be part of the Global Game Jam, January 27-29, 2012. Location will be at Webster University, and Dave Derington will be running this one (thanks Dave!). We’ll keep you posted as the details are worked out.

Congrats again to all the Game Jammers,

Elonka 🙂
