A tech showcase at TwitchCon reveals how booths teach, entice, and build lasting connections.
I won a VR headset at TwitchCon by solving a live-speedrun puzzle that required watching 12 hidden livestreams simultaneously.
The headset I grabbed was an early prototype donated by devs who secretly tested it with audience applause data from the convention floor.
A single booth swapped headsets among attendees using a sync’d haptic pattern that encoded raffle numbers in their vibrations.
The ‘discount’ I earned wasn’t money—it was voting rights to decide which indie VR game would get a two-week featured stream slot.
