About this event
ZERO HOUR Think a hackathon is just pick a problem, open your laptop, and start coding? Think again. 3 hours. 4 people. 3 Gauntlets. 1 final goal. Welcome to Zero Hour — a hackathon where coding is only part of the game. At kickoff, the clock starts and so does the uncertainty. Your team will choose a mystery theme and race to build a working technical solution before time runs out. But just when you think you have found your rhythm, the Gauntlets begin. Three surprise challenges. Three different team members. Three chances to change your score. Every Gauntlet is timed, every point matters, and your team’s final score depends on how well each member performs when it is their turn. There is no hiding behind the strongest coder. No endless time to rethink. No guarantee that your perfect plan will survive the next challenge. You will have to code, adapt, communicate, make quick decisions, and keep your team moving when things stop going according to plan. Then comes the final push: submit your solution, face the judges, and defend what you built. The question is simple: When the clock hits zero, will your team have what it takes to survive Zero Hour?
