Thank you for submitting your entries on time – The judges are very excited to see what you all have been working on and creating for the contest! Due to the volume of entries, we expect our judges to spend a few weeks reviewing all entries and selecting the winners.
As always, Feel free to leave any questions you might have in this thread and we’ll do our best to answer them!
UPDATE to answer the question about making changes to your entries - please avoid making any updates or changes to your entries until the winners have been announced in a few weeks.
Congratulations to everyone that got their submission in. There are some seriously good looking ideas/projects that have been submitted.
What’s the expectations/conditions around submissions that undergo new features, bug fixes, changes during the review period? Are sites expected to stay static while the review is ongoing?
Any chance of a compiled list of official entries?

I’d also like to know this, because I’m itching to start on the next big update, but don’t want to -Yoink!- testing.
Good luck everyone! Let’s keep it clean and just focus on letting the best project win!!

Yes. Participants should avoid making any updates or changes to their entries until the winners have been announced in a few weeks.
It has been more than a month now. The suspense is killing me and probably the other hackathon participants. I was really hoping that Friday’s community update was going to list the winners. I probably refreshed the page 100 times hoping to find them. Are you able to share a ballpark timeframe when we might find out who the lucky few are? Thanks!

Hey Super Shredder, apologies for the delay here! We wanted to make sure we took our time to make our final decisions, as so many of the entries were of such high quality!
We’re aiming for an announcement next week. Thanks for your patience!

No problem at all. Thanks for the update!
It would be interesting to get a behind-the-scenes look at some of these projects (how they were built, technologies used, individual or team background, other projects ideas, etc).
I wanted to give a big thank you to 343 and specifically any individuals who pushed for this hackathon. It is rare for a game developer to open up their statistics to the public and then even more amazing to host such a cool contest. Good luck to all of the other devs - next week can’t come soon enough!

I could give you a behind the scenes look, but only if you want to watch a 23 year old Englishman sit at a PC for 8 hours, scratching his -Yoink- and drinking copious amounts of alcohol.

Haha no thanks. I’m a fellow developer(30 year old American) and very familiar with that work style. I’m interested in the nitty gritty details (what tech used, strange problems that needed to be tackled, and maybe how much it is costing you(if anything) because domains, hosting and bandwidth add up).
