Hey! I host like half of this and authored some of the gags in the presentation. It was a blast to work on and it's been wonderful to see the reactions; I was a bit nervous that the humor wouldn't stick the landing. I'm glad I was wrong about that.

See you at the contest and see you next spotlight!

So, Sonic Racing Crossworlds is coming out on September 25th! Awesome!

...but not for us, as it comes scarily close to our planned Contest period.

We have to once more delay the SHC2025 presentation to decide what to do of this.

The presentation will now occur on June 8th.

those damn bees

Sonic Hacking Contest @shcontest.bsky.social · May 30

Update: it is going to take a while for the room to be rid of bees.

For this reason, the presentation is delayed to June 7th, 2025.

This will not affect the happening of the Sonic Hacking Contest or associated events.

Sonic Hacking Contest @shcontest.bsky.social · May 30

Due to a bee infestation in our video editor's room, progress on the SHC2025 presentation is temporarily halted, and is delayed to June 1st, 2025.

Further delays may be necessary. You will be informed appropriately.
