Metacell: Genesis Arcade
First Play 2 Earn Competition for Top 5 Players
Posey here with a super rad competition! The skinny is I need some more feedback before I sign off on some of the mechanics of the game and being weekend warriors time is precious. So what better way to get that feedback then put some cold hard cash on the table.
This idea was inspired from my childhood of tossing my allowance into the arcade machines at the skating rink or movie theater and battling my friends for the top spot on the leaderboard while waiting for our parents to get us.
So, in the spirit of that, on August 10th 12am EDT, I will be taking a screen shot of the leaderboard and give the top 5 spots money!!! In whatever currency they want!
Rank 05 - $10
Rank 04 - $25
Rank 03 - $50
Rank 02 - $100
Rank 01 - $200
See you on the leaderboard!

This was huge for us! A massive thank you to everyone that got us there!
Time to get back to work :)
Revised Gameplay/Teaser Trailer Is Up!
We are much happier now that the video has had a little more fine tuning and remodeling. I wasn't feeling good about having interpolated 720P footage from 2011 spliced in there, and so much of the in-game art has been updated during our Early Access sprint; The original promotional content needed to be replaced to match the new aesthetics.
And that soundtrack! Scott from Space Vikings provided us with the rerecording of "Creation" and it will grip your soul. We loved it so much we thought we would try it out for our main menu music and see what people thought (since it's Early Access and all). So if you want to sit on the main menu for about 6 minutes, I promise you won't be disappointed.
Until next time,
