Upgrades for Arcade Games

I remembered this one skee-ball mobile game I used to play when I was younger that had a ton of collectibles and trophies, as well as custom skins you could apply to the skee-ball machine and the skeeballs, and I realized it would be really cool if some of the arcade games in TU had upgrades.

Some obvious ones are replacements for things like:

  • Balls in Skee-ball, Super Hoopers, Whirl-a-Fish, etc.
  • Your gun in the shooting gallery
  • Your rings in Ring God

I also thought it would be cool if you could get upgrades that change the appearance of parts of the machines while you’re playing them. I’m not too sure how this would work for multiplayer machines (maybe just have your upgrade only show for you or something?), but here’s a few suggestions:

  • Skee-ball lane texture (currently solid brown by default)
  • Avalanche targets (catsacks by default, could be switched out with silver/gold/cosmic catsacks, knights, moles, etc)
  • Dragon’s Treasure/Coin River coins (could be changed to be silver, rusted, neon, etc)
  • Pluck-a-Pal crane (Silver, red, patterns, etc)
  • Stack 'Em Block Colors (Red, Green, Purple, etc.)
