Check out the SEQUEL! Le 2023 Pompous Trash Jam!
A jam where the theme is...
Make a game over 10-days that is about pompous trash or is literally pompous trash. That's it! Become the garbage!
“ What makes these games special is the way they embrace the brokenness, distortion, journey from place to place that is lost to us during play… the way they work with how dysfunctional, pointless, or ridiculous games can be…”
