At the end of January, 21 members of Frederick Game Development Meetup gathered at Cowork Frederick to participate in the Global Game Jam, an international hackathon for game makers. Working under a tight deadline and assigned theme, developers, artists, musicians, and writers shared skills to create original games in just 48 hours. At the end of the weekend an impressive 7 games were submitted to the Global Game Jam’s website.
This is a great opportunity for gaming enthusiasts of all ages to learn about the different aspects of game design, meet local talent, and play a variety of game styles. From cooperative adventures to single player fighters to choose-your-own-adventure narratives there will be something for everyone to enjoy.
Attendance is free.
