Serious Sunday: Jammin' - Global Game Jam 2017 & AGDQ 2017
1January 20th~22nd is the weekend of the Global Game Jam & Luke talks this week about game jams, the benefits of getting involved with game jams and what they are. He talks about how participating in a game jam can benefit you as a hobbyist or a professional, and about how to find a game jam near you. This week, Luke also gives a quick nod to the biggest Speedrunning marathon of the year, AGDQ and some of his favorite runs.

Serious Sunday is a freeform, sometimes roundtable discussion between the members of Level 0 NPCs, where a specific topic is pre-selected by the group to be explored and discussed at length. Each of the NPCs approach the topic from both the perspective of a seasoned, die-hard gamer, and as creators of games themselves. Part freeform review, part critical analysis, part video game book club, Serious Sunday is where the NPCs take a step back and take a moment to give a serious look at something that is important to the industry, or games in general.
