In the words of Will Shat, “Having been to space myself, I can't express how incredible an opportunity this is for software developers all over the world. It's an experience I wouldn't trade for anything. I'm excited to partner with Rapyd to spread the word to the developers worldwide to join the Rapyd Developer Community and complete the puzzles for a chance to win a trip to the edge of space.”
Hack the Galaxy was a challenge to developers all over the world: solve a series of virtual puzzles to win tickets to ride to the edge of space. Our campaign goal was simply to increase the number of members in the Rapyd Developer Community. Through an integrated global campaign featuring William Shatner, and a series of puzzles created by a world-renowned puzzle master, we were able to increase our community membership by over 50,000 members in less than half the time expected.
We topped off the campaign with an appearance WeAreDevelopers featuring a crew of space engineers guiding attendees to dispense space-themed swag from a giant rocketship. Beam me up, Scotty.
