Global Game Jam is back in Perth for 2012!
Sounds great, but what is Global Game Jam?
GGJ is an annual premier event for game developers around the world and consists of an intense 48-hour game development marathon where people meet locally, form teams, design and make games based on a theme given by the GGJ organisers.
Thanks to our generous venue sponsor Edith Cowan University for providing us with a room for the entire period and to our industry sponsor Immersive Technologies. Extra special thanks goes to Amy from the School of Communications and Arts at ECU for all her help with coordinating this event with us.

Just registered on a whim after having a dream about 2009’s Little Shop of Farters. Be afraid…be very afraid.
Arg! I am having a weekend away on GGJ weekend! I can’t really participate if I am not there, can I?
You will be there in spirit, @paradroid001.
