Congratulations to everyone that attended the first SIGMA 48 hour game development event. It was a great success with two teams and two completed games made within the 48 hours.

It was a great chance for game makers around Christchurch to meet and work together on what they love doing best: Making games! We kept it fairly low key with ample doses of sleep, sorry to those wanting to do all nighters! There was even a bit of time to squeeze in a hit of gaming.

I’d also like to give a big thanks to Unlimited Paenga Tawhiti for hosting the event, and thanks to the guys at Stickmen Studios for helping with the setup.

 

And now for the games:

Group A: Escape the Lab
