Bring a team or build one there with other game devs. We will drive collaboration & innovation within the Defense Industry, tapping into Seattle & the Pacific Northwest's talented and robust gaming community & defense industry organizations to help address real challenges posed by our Defense Industry.
Individuals & teams will come together in a physical environment and rapidly prototype a game, technology, or app focused on some element of military simulation in 48 hours. The creative solutions these teams create can help us bring our soldiers home safely. Build dual-use technologies to help society, or simply help us visualize real problems and solutions.
You will find opportunities to work and tackle challenges in all the following aspects: AI/Machine Learning, gamification learning, cybersecurity gamification, PTSD, creator tools, and data visualization and data interpretation.
