Global Game Jam 2011: Downgrade Complete!

We were invited with Daniel Benmergui, Martin Sebastian Wain and Fernando Ramallo to participate on the Global Game Jam 2011 in Santa Fe. It was an incredible experience and we were treated like kings. Santa Fe is the capital of the State of Santa Fe and it was a six hours trip for us.

We made very good games and most of the people were inexperienced. You can try all the games here:

My team was incredible and they all worked very hard.

Our game was a joke about upgrades. The ship starts with all the upgrades available but every time that the player loses one life she has to choose a feature to downgrade.

“Pagina 12″ (An important newspaper from Argentina) did a story about Art Games in Argentina. The article is very interesting to know more about the scene.  I was interviewed with my real name: Agustín Pérez Fernández.
