Look At My Drawing was developed during the Nordic Game Jam 2015. It was so far the biggest game jam in the world with more than 700 participants! The jam took place in Copenhagen at Aalborg University. 

We had 48 hours to make a game based on the theme "Obvious".

After long brainstorming sessions with ideas that started with optical illusions, we decided to take a different approach to the theme.

What we ended up was Look At My Drawing, which shows how some things are very obvious from a child's point of view, but less obvious from an adult's.

To our great surprise we ended up winning the second place and even a jury award! :)
The jury award was given by Ed Valiente from Nintendo for best use of hardware, because "The pen is mightier than the sword" :)
