How Did They Do That?
As the air turns crisp and the nights grow long, it’s time to return to the cobwebbed corridors of CodeJoy’s Robot Haunted House Student Show! If you’ve braved this twisty turny miniature darkride experience in the past, you might be curious about the magic behind the curtain. How did Matt, Kelsey, and the CodeJoy crew conjure up such a captivating experience? CodeJoy's Amanda Jeane sat down with our COO and co-founder, Matt Chilbert, to uncover the secrets behind this thrilling student-favorite show. So buckle up and prepare for a wild ride through the creative chaos that brought our haunted house to life!
