e341. #Games4SocialImpact 2024: The Rise of Jerry

On this week’s “very special episode” of VoxPopcast, join Mav as he once again chaperones his university’s yearly game jam, “#Games4SocialImpact” at the University of Pittsburgh. On this yearly episode Mav interviews students in the midst of the 3 day design marathon as they build games that explore social issues. This year’s theme is “Public”. Mav interviews several teams as they explain everything from what they hope to learn from this process, to how they pick their teams, to how they approach the design process, to the sheer madness that descends upon them as they work around the clock. And, it’s all a lot of fun. So listen and then leave them encouraging comments below.
