GGJ goes THE LÄND: Weingarten RWU

GGJ goes THE LÄND: Weingarten RWU

16 participants – 5 games.

That's the result of the Global Game Jam, which took place at RWU Weingarten on the weekend of January 30 to February 1, 2026.

Under the theme of “mask,” participants spent 48 hours brainstorming, coding, and designing.

What began as a motley crew of complainers quickly developed into well-coordinated teams that had one thing in mind at all times: reaching their goal together! Because whenever help was needed, there was always someone on hand.

We were also well catered for thanks to the support of MFG Medien- und Film GmbH Baden-Württemberg.

The atmosphere could hardly have been better, and we can look back on a thoroughly successful first jam – here's to many more!

As organizers (Glowsquid Studios & Phantompetal Studio), we have only one thing to say: A big thank you to all participants, our sponsor MFG Medien- und Filmgesellschaft BW, and RWU Weingarten!
