Will we see billiards?

[Vaibhav_Agarwal]

Found this on the Tower Unite Indiegogo page,

This clearly shows billiards and it is clearly written that “BILLIARDS IS JUST ONE OF THE MANY GAMES”.
The devs have always said that it is not sure if billiards will get added, but it is written that it will surely.

So my question is, will billiards get added?
This also counts as an Indiegogo promise (maybe), so it should definetly be added.
I dont mean to point fingers at the devs or call them liars or something, but all i want to know is-
Will billiards ever get added?

I don’t seem to be able to find anything about it on the trello, although they have most likely something planned for it further down the line.

Billiards is something we advertised on the Indiegogo, so it’s going to come out. It’s just low priority right now.

We have the artwork for it done and there’s actually a semi-working prototype of the gameplay.

Some previous posts of mine on the subject:

Billiard board & air hockey

For both Billiards and Air Hockey, we need to write our own 2D physics engine for those games. Billiards has probably one of the most complex physics of any board based game as it has multi-body collision. We plan to do Billiards at some point, but it’s very low on priority. Air Hockey was an Indiegogo promise (as a gem) and will be developed with the Arcade.

Billiards?

Billiards will eventually come out for the Condos, but we have been busy with other things at the moment. The artwork for it is done, which is why there is an item for the rack.

@macdguy

Billiards is planned to be available only in the Condo.

Working Pool Table for Condo

I think the billiards might work better for condos, actually. We’ve been talking about this off and on, but the physics strain on the lobby server would be a bit too intense. We haven’t talked about it for awhile though, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was condo only for awhile or always.

Billiards in a casino? Why? Much better suited for the arcade.

I was thinking more of a billiard lounge, like one next to the bumper cars or something since personal have never seen billiard as something that is arcade-y enough to be in an arcade.

Actually, there’s a huge arcade near me that has a bar/lounge area in it with billiards and several bowling lanes. Besides, there’s not really much more room to expand the casino. Also, the billiards were already in the arcade during the private alpha.

Billiards is more of a bar commodity, however it would fit in Casino as well. It doesn’t quite fit in the Arcade.

Only times i have seen billiard that isnt in a bar or billiard lounge would be those coin operated ones on camp grounds and certain leisure clubs.

Although having a billiard room in the volt night club would be sweet as hell.

I also think that having Billiards in the Volt night club would make sense

like macdguys said it dosent fit in the arcade, i live near to a casino and there are some billards tables it fits well to it, but when the game had a pub they could add billards and darts in there.
