Top Apps at the PinoyBBDev Hackathon


Philippine BlackBerry developer group PinoyBBDev hosted the PinoyBBDev Hackathon 2012 last August 4 and 5. Almost 100 developers gathered from around the country and spent 35 hours to develop apps for BlackBerry.

Twenty-Two Teams accepted the 2 day hackathon challenge last Aug 4-5. Attendees from several companies, schools, and freelancers join forces to create 22 Blackberry applications using different platforms namely Adobe AIR, HTML5, Native C++, Android and Cascades.


These teams hacked it out for over 35 hours straight. Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are in place to support and provide consultations to the developers as needed. Food and beverages are also pouring to keep developers energized and up to the task.

For a complete list of participants visit:  http://pinoybbdevhack.karaniwan.org/

At around 2pm of Aug 5, five Teams stood out from the challenge. Here are the BlackBerry PlayBook and the BlackBerry 10 smartphone apps that were awarded at the end of the hackathon:

You can play it either in Unli-Whacking mode or Time-Based mode. The developer (Anonas) and graphics designer (Sabriaga) converted the Android app for it to seamlessly run on the BlackBerry platform. Whack-A-Bunny was voted as the best BlackBerry 10 app.

Balut: The Game shows how common things you see every day can be fun and competitive. Inspired by a Filipino delicacy, Balut: The Game is a game that has everything: challenge, competitiveness, addictive, etc.
This game shows how to eat a balut the fun way. Also, Balut: The Game will test an individual’s hand speed and as well as his/her hand eye coordination. How fast can you eat it? How many can you eat within 2 minutes?

Wimping out on an actual balut-eating contest? Don’t worry; you can still succeed—virtually, that is. The Balut app is a fun, unique and unmistakably Filipino app developed by Asian Friends! Go!, a developer team from De La Salle University and De La Salle – College of St. Benlide. The object of the game is to eat as many baluts as you can within a given time. “[We] decided to create the most local idea that [one] could come up with,” shared Michael Donavan Go, a member of Asian Friends! Go!.
