UPDATED 2/18/2009: The GameJam was a pizza-fueled coding fest that is destined to be remembered as a campus legend. The turnout was amazing, and the 38ers lucky enough to stop by saw some very promising games in development. Best of luck to all of the students who were there as the MGC's deadline for entries looms on the horizon. (Once again, it's March 2nd. Have fun!)
