2018 Jam

The 2018 Jam took place Friday, January 26 to Sunday, January 28th in the Brown School of Business, rooms SB 306, 101, and 102. In total we had 30 participants and guests, and four games. Two were story based games, one was a Flash game, and one was developed on Unity. Most of our participants came to the event with zero programming experience. Together they worked to used their skills in art, story telling, film making, html, film, audio, and programming to create four fully playable games and one 3D interactive room.
