What is the Dark Side of the Jam? (http://www.darksidejam.com)
On March 9th and 10th, game developers around the planet will gather to make games about space and science. NASA is opening up its 3D asset vault for this event.
Winnipeg is hosting its own satellite NASA “Dark Side of the Jam.”
10 am to 10:00 pm, Saturday March 9, and 10 am to 6:00 pm,
Sunday, March 10. (Showcase at 3pm Sunday Open to Public)
University of Manitoba Smart Park Event Centre,

Register for the Winnipeg Event or ask: darksidenasa@projectwhitecard.com
The Dark Side of the Jam is open to all, whether you’re a veteran developer, hobbyist, or student. Ideally your games will not only be great achievements in coding prowess, but will help capture the public’s interest in the real science and technology advancements being made in aerospace exploration.
