Science World needs your help experiencing everything at the brand new video games edition of After Dark: Press Play for Science—and you're invited to level up with us!
Not a gamer? You'll still love it! Visit all the exhibitions the dome has to offer, including Extreme Sports: Beyond Human Limits and National Geographic's Spectacle art exhibition with your ticket. Grab some dinner at Triple O's, enjoy a beverage and dive into the science in a fun, relaxing, kid-free evening.
Here are Your Objectives:
1. Get Insider Intel
Gain science XP at industry talks. Hear from video game industry insiders and level up your gaming knowledge. Be on the lookout for more information coming soon!
2. Demo the Future
Get early access to creative new games by Vancouver Film School Students, including Meowmentum, winner of the 2022 Best Student Project Unity Award.
3. Create EZ Doodles
Generative AI is a hot-button issue — but when it comes to video game design, where is it actually at? Try your hand at Doodle Diffusion, a new interactive way to generate graphics by finger painting a rough sketch. Decide for yourself how far we've come in AI-generated illustrations…or how far there's still to go.
4. Speed-Run the Exhibits
We challenge you to scale the rock-climbing wall as fast as you can at Extreme Sports: Beyond Human Limits, presented by White Spot Restaurants. Then head downstairs to level up your culture stats while taking in breathtaking National Geographic photography at Spectacle, presented by OmniVita.
5. Unlock Inhibitions
Let loose with a cold one, vino, or non-alcoholic beverages… just don’t get rekt.
