It's Global Game Jam time! Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to create a videogame based on a specific theme within 48 hours - with a team, or solo. Boardgames are also cool.

Because of the plague, this will all be done online via Discord https://discord.gg/ZPHzGdhwTf and Zoom. To participate, simply jump onto the Discord and follow the posted instructions.
