I have always been intimidated by game jams, so much so that it’s taken me many years of being a game dev, before finally taking part in one. In this video I share with you the experiences of myself and captain dipstick, as we spent 48 hours making a game for the SA game jam 2021. It was one heck of an experience, which included a lot of fun and learning, but also a lot of stress.
As someone who has always wanted to compete in a game jam but could never decide whether or not it was worth it. I thought I would break down my experience of the jam and share it with you so that together we can decide if game jams are worth it.
