Did you know Yorkshire is home to a thriving games sector? In February 2019, our partners Weirdspace were involved in the GamesLab Leeds programme.

Weirdspace ran a game jam with the theme of Yorkshire, which took places across a weekend in February 2019. The jam was a great opportunity to meet up with other local people and make games about the best place in the UK… Yorkshire!
