    Pulse College has been selected as a Primary location for Global Game Jam.

    For those that don't know, Global Game Jam is an initiative for designers and developers to come together for a 48-hour period and try to create new games in that time in various locations across the planet. Pulse College is opening its campuses in Galway and Dublin and is expecting a strong turnout in both areas.

    During last year's Game Jam, Irish developers managed to create a total of 60 games within the 48-hour time limit - all made from scratch complete with music, graphics and stories to go along with them.

    You can follow the Global Game Jam on Twitter and YouTube. Here's how it all went down in the 2016 Game Jam.
