Apparently, more people want to get into games than I originally thought. On January 29th-31st, Game CoLab hosted the Phoenix Global Game Jam 2016 at the University of Advancing Technology (UAT) and we were looking forward to a good turnout of 30-40 game makers. We ended up with over 90! The UAT theater was full on Friday night as we outlined what a game jam was , who this event's sponsors were and the theme. This year's Global Game Jam was expected to be massive with over 60
