A few of our members took part in Global Game Jam this year! The theme was "Deception", and over 50 countries took part, setting new records for the extremely popular game developing event. If you've never heard of Global Game Jam, it's basically a worldwide event in which game developers gather together in groups to each make a game in a 48-hour weekend.

First we have Depict1, a game which Kyle Pulver describes as "a fun little game that is sure to make you angry at games in general." The game was made at the Retro Affect Studio jam site in Gilbert, Arizona.



And second, we have Eaty Guys and the Operator, a game developed by Matt Thorson and ChevyRay, who teamed up with 4 other developers at the SAIT, Calgary jam site in Canada.



There are many other great games! So don't for get to drop by the Global Game Jam website and check some of them out. Also, if you're interested in the event, make sure to sign up for 2011! It's great fun, and an awesome way to meet and work with new game developers.
