We want to let you make physical things that interact with the badge more easily, in the knowledge that those things are going to continue working with future event badges.

In previous years, expandability has always been an afterthought - people still managed to do amazing things with their badges, but it was a lot of effort.

The Tildagon will not only let us waste fewer materials, but it also provides us and attendees with a stable base to build on and invest in.

In future events, we will reuse this base part and maintain compatibility in software and hardware for existing hexpansions.

The most energy-intensive part of each badge is the battery, so we've made it compatible with the batteries from the 2016 and 2018 badges.
