Didn't attend any of them?

Don't worry, being present at one of the workshops is not mandatory to attend a game jam, it is just a help. Below we have uploaded the presentation and the two games we created together with their source code.

Workshop I

During the first workshop, we made a game where a train flies to and from the moon to collect cheese, since the moon is made of cheese. The game was called Space Train 3: In Hope of Cheese and the player controls the train with 'A' and 'D' to rotate left and right.

There is no restart. You will have to reload the page to try again.

Workshop II

During the second workshop, we made a game where a train jumps between three tracks to dodge obsticles and kill alien babies; as you do. The game was called yawbus and this time we also used 'A' and 'D' to jump left and right.
