Attack of the Trolls - Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge Streamthrough

HWJ
Written By Atlas Castle

Hardware Jams Weekend Challenge - The Streamthough!

”The music stops. Everyone exchanges nervous glances to one another. You reluctantly move to the door of the cabin, reach out your hand... BAM! Before you can open or lock the door, it's blown off its hinges in a cloud of dust. The dust clears and standing there are three enormous Mountain Trolls, holding huge wooden clubs.

The music has disturbed them and they have awoken from hibernation. Now they are hungry... for human flesh. Your only chance is to jam for your life. You could perhaps try to soothe them, or create some massive beats that Trolls might enjoy. Your survival depends on it.”
