Welcome to the first (annual?) Game Journo Game Jam!

[Scott Nichols]

As some of my twitter followers may have noticed, I have a tendency to
spout out game ideas from time to time Peter Molydeux-style. When
Molyjam was happening, I was so excited for it, but a weekend simply
isn’t enough time for someone with my complete lack of experience to
take part. As such, I would like to propose the Game Journo Game Jam,
a game jam built around accommodating people with no experience and
bizzarro writer schedules. Interested? Then allow me to elaborate.

During the month of May I am going to attempt to make a game, and I
invite all industry folk to join me in this endeavor. Yes, the game
jam will comprise the entire month of May. Remember, this for
accommodating crazy schedules and people with potentially no prior
experience. And despite the name, this isn’t just for game journos,
critics, and writers, so I’d love to see PR reps and anyone else
involved in this fine industry who doesn’t typically dabble in game
development join in.

Obviously you've made your way here somehow because you're interested
in the Game Jam, so welcome, and let's fill this Google group with
discussion and the sharing of ideas, tips, and tools to make this Game
Jam a success!
