Why is this game $3?

Some thoughts on marketing...


Why is this game $3?

If you paid quarters to play sessions of this game, 12 quarters would only give you 6 tries. That would only last you maybe 1 or 2 visits to the arcade or a weekend.

Now, imagine that you inserted 12 quarters into the arcade machine and you brought the entire arcade cabinet home and an engineer shows up once a month to add more content to the game.

That's basically what this deal is

except you have the copy on your pc!

(Unless, you have your pc monitor inside an arcade cabinet...)

This project is designed to give players infinite content!

I'm doing prototyping these days. I can't escape the allure of the chunky pixels. So, this is how it's going.
