Rapid Ryan's Arcade



    Removed the following Minigames


  • Training Tracks, Pinchinko, Firing Frenzy, Precision Playfield, Rolling Romp, Whack A Rabbit, Catch A Rabbit

    Added the following Minigames


  • Daring Dasher, Gem Gatherer, Odd One Out, Orbiting Oddity, Raccoon Roller, Rough Rotations, Zig-Zag Zoom
    Why?
  • The minigames were originally made to show off part of the game Roxy Raccoon's Pinball Panic. However, these minigames have developed and gone much further beyond in Pinball Panic that these actually may give player's a negative impression of Pinball Panic. On top of this, Pinball Panic has since gone free to play and you can access much better versions of these games for free within Pinball Panic.
  • As a solution I replaced these minigames with other minigames better suited to the original Roxy Raccoon. The rewards and unlockables are now linked to these minigames instead.
  • Missile Blocker: Announcer added. Fixed a score tracking bug, Adjusted the font
