Avoin invited Helsinki Think Company’s community manager, Sari Kivijärvi, to report the startup community event space’s first Eko Game Jam. Here is Sari’s report about her jam experience.
This mobile game prototype is created by art guru Petri and game jam guru Samuli specifically for eko game jam. They will also be joining the first jam as mentors. The prototype inspires game jammers to use ecological data and information provided by Sitra and our other partners.
