The discussion topic for the next Jam will be when it's due. Probably around 2 weeks before the Jam starts, give or take a day or two. Better not launch the hype train too early or it'll derail (plus the themes are yet to be collected).
In the meantime, I sorted out the first GMC Jam in the hall of fame/archive topic. You can read up on it
here. A ZIP of whichever games I managed to download is also there. If anyone has any of the missing entries, I'd be grateful for uploading it somewhere and giving a link, maybe?
Furthermore, I started making a Jam statistics JSON, linked
here. Basically, a nicely formatted collection of essential Jam data (entries, votes, etc.) ready for further processing for your data science needs. So far only Jam #1 is available, but it'll be updated as I keep adding other Jams as well. If there's some data you need that is not available there, please tell.
