Rapid Ryan's Arcade & Additional Polish

Rapid Ryan's Arcade:



  • An option has been added to the main menu to access a new mode called "Ryan's Arcade". This is a collection of minigames which provide a unique take on the pinball formula.
  • 2 New minigames have been added as well as some minor changes to Missile Blocker.

Each minigame has the following:

  • An achievement tied to beating the target score.
  • Online leaderboards which can be accessed from the main menu as well.
  • A "How to Play" section from the in-game pause menu.


Pinchinko:


A take on a classic pachinko where you can manipulate the ball's movement.

Firing Frenzy:


Balls continuously launch from the plunger and you aim to shoot them into the various lanes for maximum points.

Missile Blocker:



  • This was moved from the extras menu in the main menu to Ryan's Arcade.
  • The UI was overhauled.
