An advanced project seminar at the Albert Schweitzer High School in Erlangen visited us yesterday in the office, learning how it looks like in an indie games company.
They asked many questions, and didn't hold back with tough ones like "where do we see problems in the industry", which is awesome!

The fantastic game jam @ludumdare.com is sadly not running any events in 2025 as host Mike Kasprzak is struggling financially.

While Mike isn't specifically asking for donations, he does have a Patreon which helps cover the jam's expenses.

Perhaps we can help? www.patreon.com/c/mikekasprz...
