Were you at TGW 25? Did you play protest games under a ufo? Invent giant parachute games with a fully armoured knight? Colour with your face on a giant silo with Olivia Chow? Find a giant rat in the depths of Toronto? Relive the glory in 3m thanks to Tate Young www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNf-...

"That's My Jam: Understanding the Value of Game Jams," the white paper I wrote with GAIN, launched last week at @torontogamesweek.com!

This white paper interrogates what game jams are, why people attend them, and how they benefit game makers with diverse creative and professional aspirations.
