I participated in my first official Global Game Jam this past weekend. I decided to dive head on into it by helping make an NES style game. A working web version of our game can be found here: https://www.slembcke.net/nes/TrashBandits/

Some of the pixel art that I helped make.

By far, the highlight of the game jam was the Executive Director of Global Game Jam, Maria Burns Ortiz, stopping by and playing our game.
