Sustainable Games at the Global Game Jam 2016

posted in: Good Causes | 0

Last weekend thousands of game developers from all around the world accepted the challenge of creating a video game in 48 hours: it was the Global Game Jam!

VGWB attended the event in Madrid (Spain) and challenged the developers with a Local Diversifier (in addition to the official Diversifiers):

Sustainable Game: your game is about at least one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Few teams accepted the challenge and a couple of them were awarded!
