    That does sound fun. Work used to have internal game jams but we don’t do that anymore (to hell with morale, or learning the tools we’re building, profits only!). I should look into some, do you have any particular recommendations?

      Unfortunately, it’s not something I ever got into myself. I wanna say itch.io has them fairly frequently? But I haven’t looked into it myself.

      My first thought would be looking into communities of like-minded people (local if you’re lucky enough). I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of the Bloodborne PSX demake or Bloodborne Kart (which was supposed to release a few months ago before it got DMCA’d, RIP), but the lady behind those is a former industry dev who streams her work on Twitch and has a Discord that has multiple channels dedicated to game dev stuff. I feel like that would be the kind of place to hop into. Her name on Twitch is b0tster if you wanna check her out.
