GameJam Experience

I have participated in 3 GameJams so far. They have been an excellent exercise in improvisation and making the most out of limited time and resources. The first taught me how to collaborate with other programmers using readable code and delegating tasks. The second stretched my abilities as a solo programmer surrounded by creatives with big ideas. The third actually has no submission, but did teach me that my motivation stems from other people, and going solo is incredibly difficult without an external force driving me to complete a project.
