Photos from the Room 31 Arcade


Here in Room 31 we like to have fun and what better than designing and playing your own arcade!

Inspired by this short film... http://cainesarcade.com/

We created our own, by brainstorming, designing, and then building. We also prepared 'net drawings' of our creations so that anyone could come and create our work.

Here are some pics...

    I think that the people who run this event (in Pittsburgh, unfortunately) would love the idea of our arcades. One link is to the event's website, and the other is to a page with some more info on the page.

    I have posted our arcades on google+, where people all over the world can look at our arcades. I haven't gotten any responses yet. But the hardest thing in making my arcade was cutting thick cardboard. :)

    I did the same as jack and emailed cainesarcade.com about our arcade. No response yet The most challenging thing for me was painting multiple layers and making the ping-pong gun work

    I did the same as Jack and Jakub and I haven't got a reply either. The hardest thing I found was trying to put it together without the pieces breaking and making a mess

    I went to http://www.handmadearcade.com/ and the people there would probably be interested. but unfortunately I think there in america. I found painting the hardest because the paint smelt discusting

    I sent it to the New Zealand Herald, but i have not heard back from them yet.I think the hardest thing was choosing what to do, it took for ever.

    i posted it on instagram and am still waiting on comments etc, the hardest part for me was the factcthat i was absent for quite a lot of the time we were making so it made it harder to finish on time
