What an unforgettable weekend!
I had the absolute honour and pleasure of being part of this year’s organising committee for the Toulouse Scientific Game Jam
For 48 hours straight, passionate teams of researchers and developers worked days and nights to transform five fascinating scientific topics into immersive video games. They didn’t know each other beforehand, but fuelled by science, creativity, and too much coffee☕, they achieved the impossible!
Have you ever wondered:
– How do stories shape our environment?
– How can artificial intelligence enhance satellite capabilities?
– Can we apply nature’s collective patterns to a swarm of drones?
– What is the impact of ammonia in our atmosphere?
– How can we recreate “The Martian”, but without Matt Damon?
These are the topics you can discover through the unique lens of gaming!
You can find all the games here: https://itch.io/jam/scientific-game-jam-2025/entries
A big thanks to the Centre National d’Études Spatiales, Toulouse Game Dev, la Cité de l’Espace and La Science Entre En Jeu for making this event possible.
And, of course, hats off to all the fantastic participants who gave it their all this weekend!
Never stop learning, and see you next year!
