Then sock a sack works

this is incredible! i can’t wait for this. i’ve been anticipating the arcade since GMT’s Lobby 2 and i never could’ve imagined it’d be as grand as this. best of luck with it, i’ll be waiting!!

I cannot believe how elaborate the arcade is going to be. Watching this project since GMT, genuinely couldn’t imagine we would be getting such huge content; especially when considering its only one part of the lobby, and the lobby is only one part of the game.

Cannot wait to see what the games start to look like

If I recall correctly we had a Blockles game in Gmod Tower that was like Tetris.

I believe it’s not coming back due to copyright issues?

But still all of them seem great

Yeah it isn’t coming back, but there’s absolutely nothing stopping someone from making a clone for the workshop

Sem · June 15, 2019, 9:35am

Kept you waiting, uh?

Why do I get the feeling that the 0.9 update will release early instead of the other ones? (Not that I’m complaining, of course)

Also consider adding some pinball machines to the list of games please. Used to play the shite out of those in my local arcade

RiQuY · June 15, 2019, 3:55pm

Are the arcades like Dizzy rigged like IRL or do it work properly?
No offense, just curious.

Great work guys, can’t wait to try it!

Arkive86 · June 15, 2019, 3:58pm

None of the arcade machines are designed to be rigged (with the exception of Wheel of Fire, which is explicitly RNG). That doesn’t mean they’ll be easy, though. We’ll have to wait until release to really get a feel for how hard the machines are.

Sealzrevenge · June 15, 2019, 7:54pm

Wow. Just wow. You guys are really going above and beyond with this arcade. I won’t ever question how long until something comes out because if you guys are putting this much work into it, then I could wait as long as it takes.

will we be able to purchase these machines for our condos

Yoshi24517 · June 16, 2019, 1:25am

Besides DDR, if that can (hopefully) be finalized, Pump it Up (Korean DDR) is a good option too.

There’s currently talk about having the machines be unlockable at the ticket store but the games won’t award tickets and instead reward condo points (if the condo owner allows it).

Eriberto · June 16, 2019, 3:45am

What are condo points?

ToxicBoo · June 16, 2019, 5:06am

Maybe they meant Condo EXP?

Thomas · June 16, 2019, 5:20am

No, I thought condo points were supposed to be a currency for your condo? I remember seeing it being spoken about

bum · June 16, 2019, 1:07pm

I would love to see a reaction time test kind of machine where you have to hit lit up buttons, like the video below. You could have it so people have to click them fast or assign each light to a keyboard button.

Andech · June 16, 2019, 4:48pm

In the latest weekly dev log, they did state that the arcade is their main focus right now.

CalculatorSpoon · June 17, 2019, 5:37pm

Is multitasking illegal now?

EDIT: The post I was responding to got deleted.

nahmaz · June 17, 2019, 7:39pm

But can we play Tower Unite as an arcade game? I hear it’s fun.

Emperor · June 17, 2019, 11:41pm

Hey Mac I am wondering have you guys thought of adding some Pinball machines to the arcade as well? Not sure if you thought about adding Pinball machine games. Is it possible for you guys to be able to add Pinball machines to the arcade if not on release then in a future update?
