I love game jams. During a game jam, you work your way up from a sketchy, overly ambitious design idea to a (barely) functioning mini-game, all in a few days. I have participated in quite a few since I caught the bug at my first Global Game Jam in 2011. Along with my partners-in-crime Manuel Kerssemakers (of Abbey Games) and Valentijn Muijrers (of the HKU), I have made many very silly things. We somehow won prizes for most of them.
I co-designed most of these games, and did music and sound design for all of them. For an impression of what participating in a gamejam is like, check out this sweet minidoc about the Global Game Jam by Sasja Opdam! My 2014 jam team features in it.
