Why We Create, Szn3, Ep11: Jammin' with the Portland Indie Game Squad & Rose City Games

For the latest episode of the official #wacom podcast, Why We Create, we’re syncing up with a few of our favorite local gamers, Will Lewis and Marlow Dobbe of PIG Squad and Rose City Games. They share with us what it takes to not only create your own indie game, but also cultivate an amazing community of game developers. 

From musicians to project managers, we discuss all of the roles involved in making a game as well as the benefits of participating in local (or via discord) game jams.  PIGSquad is a thriving community of creatives, programmers, musicians, storytellers and more – and their next jam is just around the corner, you can sign up by heading over to www.pigsquad.com
