Hi.
Gamification for the technical savvy
CheckiO is a gaming platform for programmers
Improve your code with the help of the community
We help companies share their engineering culture through unique challenges
We support your hackathon
online game == gamification?
the CheckiO platform is a string of islands with specific
code challenges
user profiles are designed to show off activity, amount of
badges and level
based on level, certain actions on the site unlock
publish your solution and receive code-reviews from fellow users
badges reward users for more than just coding abilities
working with developer-darling companies allows us to raffle out ‘stuff’
social sharing built into a lot of actions on the
site
... but we’re dealing with a different demographic here
programmer == gamer
(mainly) boys will be boys
collaboration vs competition
Thanks. @floordrees
