Watch Arcooda’s first Checkpoint video, which features details on our new anti-cheating technology, updates on Arcooda Video Pinball and the launch of a brand new 8 Player Fish Cabinet.
From today, Arcooda will start an all new video series which will provide our gaming community and the wider public with up-to-date company news.
The regular checkpoint videos will feature details and updates on Arcooda projects currently under development and, at times, call for your opinions and input about them.
“There is a lot of new development at Arcooda, and often these developments are difficult to explain just through text,” Arcooda CEO Steve Josifovski said.
“We have created this new video series to share with our distributors and customers many of the projects we are working on, machines we are soon to release, and also to ask for your feedback.
“This video series is a good way to contribute and have your say on what features you would like to see added, cabinet colours, or what further collaborations you would like us to have with other leading software and hardware factories.
“We hope you can be part of our community as the machines we are building are not designed for “one off” game style purchases, but more, where the cabinet can be modified over the years for long term use.”
Checkpoint video one will land on the Arcooda YouTube channel Thursday night.
This video will contain updates on the Arcooda Video Pinball, a new game and machine, plus something extra we’ve been working on – an anti-cheating system.
Keep an eye out on our YouTube channel, as well as our Facebook and Twitter pages for these checkpoint videos.
We want you to join the discussion. Ask a question, post a comment or send us a message about our checkpoint video on Arcooda’s Facebook, Twitter or YouTube pages.
