The winners of the 2019 Winter #ue4jam are...

By Victor Brodin

It may be cold in parts of the world, but the participants of the 2019 Winter #ue4jam were on fire. The Unreal community created many great titles amongst their 120 submissions and our team spent the week following the jam playing and scoring them. It’s a tough job, but nothing that the Unreal Engine community team can’t handle!

The announcement of the theme, “all’s fair in love and war,” kicked off the five-day event. In the days that followed, games emerged where players had to fight their partner to stay in bed, rescue princesses, and joust for all the love and glory. There were also cats; and cats with knifes; and cats in tanks. All these games go to show that there is no shortage of creativity and talent in our community.

And we all agree that cats equal love and, occasionally, war.
