I think it sounds like a great idea not focusing as much on just crunching game making. I’d like to see more social interaction and organized discussion forums instead.

Last summer felt a bit alienating. If you weren’t making a game it was hard to strike up a conversation with anyone.

I think one of the best NMS moments for me was when Petri held his presentation and afterwards we started exchanging experiences verbally! This was the first NMS.

I haven’t been to any of the previous NMS but I, too, am a bit put off by it being a “discussion event”.

But to be honest, I will probably come either way.

I was sort of looking forward to going to this this summer, but with the expectancy of making games. I guess if it’s become unmanageable/undesirable to keep things up the way they were that’s cool, but it’s no longer something that really holds interest for me.

There will also be a Swedish game jam if I have understood everything correctly.

I loved how NMS was – having yet another event where we all discuss how great Phil Fish is (don’t take that too seriously) doesn’t make me happy. I absolutely LOVE jamming, making games under pressure, surrounded by people with the same interests, though.

Addendum:

Robert Zetzsche suggested that we try to plan the event so that it wont collide with BIGJam in Berlin, like it did last summer.
