At that moment, I realized a key factor in why we had struggled as a team before this. We often designed games based solely on what we thought sounded good for the game, never accounting for what our team wanted to develop. After this realization, I met with every team member individually and asked them a simple question: "What do you want to get out of this game jam? What is your why?" 
     From this information and the theme of "trust," Benji Trout proposed a multiplayer hidden role bank heist game. Once we had a good grasp of what we wanted, I started assigning tasks through Trello. I sat down with Benji and created the minimum-viable product. We had hoped for much more, but that's a game jam, isn't it?
     I opened my dorm to my team throughout the week, and night after night we worked together. By creating a game based on individual team members' goals, I saw my team synergize. We had purpose in the way we worked. This is my favorite game jam by far because we had never been so in tune as a group before.
