Winnitron:SYD.
Are you sick of Melbourne and Brisbane having Mana Bars?
All of Sydney's arcades feature skilltesters and photobooths, and all you want to play is an arcade game.
Do you want to wrap your hand around 2 inches of plastic and hit that gorgeous rounded buttons.
We're building the Winnitron:SYD and we need your help. We're going to make an arcade machine that welcomes new games by independent developers.
The Winnitron:SYD will have an attract mode screen that will feature the names of individuals, companies and developers that helped fund the project. See the side bar for details.
New games can be added to the Winnitron:SYD with relative ease, so that means aspiring developers will be able to load the latest build of their game to test with audiences in real time.
A Winnitron cabinet in Sydney will really put Sydney on the independent game scene map.
We're asking for $2000. The way it will be spent will be approximately $1000 on a cabinet and monitor and $1000 on a computer.
We're looking at getting a bartop arcade system from javascript:nicTemp(); It's not a full size arcade machine, but I think it's a good idea, for portability.
Sydney doesn't have a Mana Bar, where will it live?
The bartop arcade machine should be portable enough to allow it to travel to events such as IGDA Beer + Pixels and Developer Debug, as well as the big events and game jams that crop up.
Exclusive Australian games that are on the Melbourne Winnitron and will appear on Winnitron:SYD:
- Initials - Super Lemonade Factory (Exclusive Ultra Edition)
