If you’ve been laid off and are in need of a little boost in vitality, inspiration or confidence while you’re looking for a new position, [P1] Games game jams might be just the thing that gives you back some spark and joy. The magic of working together with a small inspired and enthusiastic team to make a playable demo in just 2 weeks is an incredible energy and brings a lot of good vibes into your space. P1 Games with the exceptional leadership of Samuel Martin is having their next FREE community game jam starting the 10th of July! NO COST INVOLVED. All of the themes are wholesome and altruistic, and this month’s is working together to alleviate hunger. (Link below) P1 was the very first place to give me a chance when I decided to make the transition from senior illustrator in the advertising industry to games back in December, and it was the best training ground I could have ever possibly asked for. I learned what inspiring, authentic and noble leadership looks like, agile frameworks, the power of servant leadership, incredible teamwork collaboration, and how to be a scrum master. I also got a boot camp/crash course in wholistic game development that brought me up to speed so when I applied and interviewed for roles in games (got my first interview two weeks after joining P1), I was very comfortable in my knowledge of processes, pipelines and cross functional collaboration, and the game development space. P1 also got me my first paid game industry project a month after joining, and two other paid contract roles since! For me, everything began and has circled back to P1, and I personally invite anyone wanting to start a new positive and vibrant adventure to join their 7500 member strong Discord and have fun making a playable demo with game developers from around the world. Whether you’re a programmer, game designer, artist, producer or even in indie leadership, there is magical powers to be gained at P1! Here’s to the angels who help us along our path. https://lnkd.in/esbzq-cK
