Arcade (0.9.0.0)

IT’S HERE!!!

The time has come! The WarpZone Arcade is now officially opening its doors inside the Plaza!

We’ve put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into this update to bring you the best possible arcade experience video games can offer. Each game has tons of painstakingly crafted detail and authentic arcade gameplay!

A couple of cool facts about this arcade:

  • There are 22 brand new games!
  • There are over 180 unlockable arcade prizes, including:
    • plushies
    • toy weapons
    • vehicles
    • …and more!
  • The WarpZone is filled with authentic gameplay, sound effects, and music!
  • Each arcade machine is a unique game with its own set of achievements, leaderboards, sound effects, art, music, and animations.
  • Every arcade machine is also networked and spectatable. This is an incredible feat and was extremely difficult to make!

We’re extremely proud of the Arcade, and we can’t wait for you to enjoy it as well.

I’m going to strive to get every prize, I can’t wait for the update to finish installing! It’s also nice that the pool tubes no longer sink to the bottom of the pool. The Tower Lobby is looking really nice now!

Well, damnit. I picked a great time to move. I was hardwired in my old house but that’s not an option here, so I have to wait until Tuesday (when my wireless adapter arrives) to be able to play

Finally got a chance to try this. It’s amazing but the lag is real. I’ll probably hold off until the lag gets fixed.

Glad you finally got a chance to check it out! How many people were on the server you got into? The arcade is buttery smooth on freshly rebooted servers with few people in them :smiley:

47 iirc.
