Definitely check out the GMC Forums Jam when the next one comes up! It is every 4 months (the most recent one just finished up). The GMC Jam has been around for a LONG time and thus has a well-defined ruleset and guidelines. Even though this particular jam might have left you slightly jaded, every jam you do will help you develop your skills as a story writer! The best part about jams is that you get the feedback from members also participating, and that in-and-of-itself is a MASSIVE reward, as there are very few mediums where you can actually get constructive, thought-out, and passionate critique en masse! I hope to see you around soon! YOYO tried to do something different and it flopped a bit, it happens to the best of us. Just like us game devs, they will learn from the experience and adapt accordingly. :)
