“I had a lot of fun developing my game for the NGF game jam. It was cool seeing people play my game in real life and I got a lot of great feedback from players as well as other jammers which I'll be sure to implement in all my future projects.” - MisterSnappy (Heavenly Ascent) NGF 2024 Game Jam

“The moment I heard about the game jam for the Norwich Games Festival, I was all in! The entire experience was a blast! It was a straightforward project, but I believed it would make a great impact at the Games Festival. I hope everyone who played the game had as much fun as I did making it!” - Duncan McHardy (Beyond the Stars) NGF 2024 Game Jam
