We have done limited compatibility testing on the game because we do not have many machines available to us.
Arcadecraft should run on a Windows 8 PC and we have tried it on an original Surface Pro however the performance isn’t great.
Mistakes:
Buying Orbitron: Revolution on PC or Xbox does NOT get you the Orbitron: Revolution cabinet in the PC version of Arcadecraft. We will do another mechanic to allow access to the cabinet where you do not have to buy Orbitron:Revolution.
Incomplete Art:
You will notice many characters show up in white or grey. That is because the art for these characters is not complete. We just received a new drop of characters from our character artist so they will be added to a new build shortly. We apologize for the incomplete art but wanted to get the game into your hands sooner.
Game Limitation:
We have capped this initial build of Arcadecraft off at the end of 1984, so 5 years of in game simulation. This gives this build of the game approximately 4-5 hours of gameplay. We have done this so as people play through this Beta they will be playing through a slightly smaller timeline in the game and if they are encountering issues they will be focused within this area of the timeline. We apologize for what seems like an arbitrary cut off but we think it is the best way to judge stability. This said, we have not encountered any bugs within the game on our end but our test sample is small.
Access to the full timeline will come in another build. Probably within the next 10 days as feedback on the game comes back from players.
