The Tech Jam is over and done with for the year, and I have to say that I really enjoyed the experience.
It was a great chance for us to introduce ourselves to not only the Vermont tech community, but also to the public. At the TechJam we showcased Loc, playable on an iPad as well as on a large television we borrowed from Marguerites parents.
We pulled out all the leftover kick starter goods, printed a banner for Off-shoot Studios, and created some simple twitter cards. By the end of Saturday, almost all of it was gone.
The first half of the day Friday came as a tidal force of middle school students. They we bused up to Winooski from nearby districts and at points we had a crowd two or three people deep trying to see what we had available. It mellowed out after the kids got back on their buses to head on back to school, and Saturday was pretty laid back.
Developers tend to really like these events. Letting the public play your game is always a great moment, and watching someone get it, and get pulled into the experience is priceless. After all of the negative comments on Steam Green light, it felt really good to have other people tell us that they enjoyed the game.
