Arcade Paradise

Mechanics

Arcade Paradise is a first-person game (FPP). Since we start the game off with nothing, the family laundromat is our initial priority. We must wash clothes brought by customers, clean up and take out the trash. Over time our wallet starts filling up and we'll be able to afford our first arcade machine. Our collection slowly grows as we proceed through the game, until eventually there's no trace of the old laundromat left.

The game features over 35 machines, each equipped with a unique game inspired by an actual iconic game from the arcade era. They include racing games, beat 'em ups, fighting games and shoot 'em ups. Most importantly, we can play every single one ourselves, striving to achieve better results.

Game modes

Arcade Paradise is mostly a singleplayer game, but every arcade mini-game supports local multiplayer for two people.

Technical aspects

Visually, Arcade Paradise is decent, at a similar level to other simulation games. The arcade mini-games feature pixel art graphics reminiscent of the 8-bit and 16-bit eras. The soundtrack, coming from the jukebox in our arcade, is similarly inspired by the 1990s, the arcade golden age.
