Jam's done with for this year, I was at the Vancouver one as a Mentor/Judge. It went over awesomely here, and seems to have done well elsewhere as well judging from the games!
For those who weren't involved you can still play all the games. Some turned out impressively well. Just visit http://globalgamejam.org/Game_browser
This won us second place (out of 5) at our location. Some of the teams didn't get the time to fully implement all the intended gameplay, which helped us of course. Make with Game Maker, it requires 2 to play.
