Arcade Game Competition

Students build and submit their own arcade-style games. Entries are judged on creativity, gameplay, and polish. The best games earn a spot in the Hackingtons Arcade.

Startup Business Idea

Students pitch a technology startup idea — from the problem it solves to how it would work. They learn to think like entrepreneurs and present to a panel of judges.

Holiday Competition

A seasonal favorite. Students build themed projects around upcoming holidays — Thanksgiving, winter, and more — competing for the most creative entry.

Rubik's Cube Competition

Students learn solving algorithms, practice speed-solving techniques, and compete head-to-head for the fastest times.
