Lucas Goes Above and Beyond to the Toronto Global Game Jam

Today is very exiting! I have basically been looking foreword to this weekend for the last month or so now. It's so exiting because, this weekend is my first game jam! Yup I'm going to be in the 2014 Toronto Global Game Jam (TGGJ) For those of you who are not familiar with what this is; A game jam is basically where you make a game in a set amount of time. Usually that amount of time is a bit un-realistic though. So basically you binge game making and eat a lot of Chinese food.

Today I'll be going down to the George brown campus for the entire weekend to work my butt off, only leaving for minimal amounts of sleep. I've never really been to one of these so I'm not sure what to expect but hear they're super intense and awesome.

Also, I'll hopefully have a game to show for my time there when the weekend is over. I'll be honest, the game's probably going to suck. That, however, is to be expected. It's more about the experience. No matter how it turns out I'll be posting a lint to it here next week so get hyped!
