Hack-cade
Hosted by MLH
Event Description
Pac-man, Tetris, Space Invaders! Who doesn't love these classic arcade games! Join us for a fun weekend of hacking and gaming. Whether you want to recreate an old classic or spin up a brand new game, this event is for you to build incredible hacks.
Don't miss out on the friends stopping by for this awesome event such as Battlesnake, Replit and last but not least, Twilio.
To help you out, Twilio is providing you with access to TwilioQuest; a video game designed to teach hackers about programming. If you’re new to game development, you can get started by using the TwilioQuest template to create your own stages and missions!
As always, we'll be running mini-events, workshops, and more to keep you entertained. We even have an exclusive prize category for ‘Best TwilioQuest Extension’ if you decide to use their development template! Whether you build something on the theme or not, however, you should focus on having fun. While we'd love to have you build something on the theme, our themes are only here for inspiration. Please build whatever you'd like!
Happy hacking!
