Thanks to all who helped for Board Game Jam

I had an amazing time at Bristol Games Hub’s recent board game jam. It was great fun and as a games designer, a real treat to focus so intently on game mechanics for an extended period. In digital development the pressure is always on to draw a line under the mechanics so the code and art can get going – it was nice to be able to iterate separate to that for a change!  There is a bit more info on bristolgameshub.com

We’d like to thank all who took part in our first ever Board Game Jam and the first game jam hosted at the Hub’s base in Stokes Croft.  The event was a huge success with people traveling from far and wide to take part (kudos to those who traveled from Brighton and Cambridge to join in!).  We have 5 team of developers who created 5 amazing games made on the theme of ‘Winter’ created and a huge amount of energy, creativity, meeples and sweets to go around.

Plus the team I was in won, so that makes it doubly-fun! 🙂 🙂
