Cool Jams Inc.

Some awesome and enterprising members of our community got together this month and said, “Hey, you know what? We should do a game jam. And it should be so cool… that it’s incorporated.”

Thus was the enthralling (and mostly made up) tale behind last weekend’s Cool Jams Inc., a game jam hosted at the Indies Workshop by Logan Fieth and based upon the podcast Cool Games Inc. Shout out to everyone who came out to the event – it had 60 in-person attendees and even more working remotely to help make some of the frankly coolest games I’ve seen all year!

But as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Take a look at these (photos courtesy of the amazing Hannah Hogwood)!
