Nordic Game Jam

Hey there…

I just wanted to ask if anyone here from Kong is heading to Nordic Game Jam this weekend in Copenhagen? First Game Jam I’m attending, so it’s going to be interesting for me :)

I’m not, but coincidentally we have a game jam at my uni over the same weekend

Should be good fun for us both, then, hopefully!

I am attending Game Jam, but I’m doing it in my country. :P

Dealmaster, nice – good luck getting to create something ^_

(Just FYI: That’s why it’s called Global Game Jam)

As far as I’m aware, the global jam is the week after

Ah, you are correct. I didn’t actually look at their site, so I assumed it was related.

A nordic game jam sounds awesome! More Vikings, Dragons, snow and beards. Sadly, I live on the opposite side of the Earth.

When I brainstorm ideas… there’s always some vikings there… I guess I can’t help it.

As far as I heard, the Nordic Game Jam ended up being the biggest jam ever… with a bit over 450 visiting Aalborg University in Copenhagen to have some fun ^^

As for my own game, we didn’t end up with a fun gameplay (we had some problems on the code front xD during the last 24 hours) – but I like how far we got with the atmosphere.

The game and a brief description, credits list and such can be found here:

There should be a link so you can play it on my website (their own service to download the pc version seems broken)

I ended up making the textures and level design for the game.
