Global Game Jam 2011

2011-02-02

Last weekend I went to Vienna and took part in the global game jam. indeterminatus mentioned it in #allegro on Tuesday or Wednesday, on Thursday in a moment of insanity I ordered train tickets and on Friday was standing in the Vienna subway trying to find the game jam location... with only wireless internet I really should have noted down the location and maybe brought a map :P
Still, when I saw a station called Karlsplatz in the subway plan I remembered, and went there. Outside the station I saw a university building... and at the main entrance there was a sign saying "game jam" and then another sign pointing up a stairway. And there I was.
The main difference to LD48/pyweek/speedhack and so on was that it was a team competition. I mainly did some support coding. Will put a link to the game later.
