While building yet another RetroBox arcade I got to work to see if I could add some awesome illuminated buttons.
RetroBox – My second bartop build
The last couple of weeks I’ve been quite busy building my seconds bartop arcade. Now that the hardware part of the project is mostly done, it’s time to share it!
Omega back-end and game scraper
The past couple of days have been dedicated to the back-end of Omega, the front-end I’m developing for my bartop arcade. It has been a whole lot of work for one person, but the result will be awesome.
Omega design concept
The last couple of days have been dedicated to designing a new front-end for my custom bartop arcade. I’m not very happy with my current setup running HyperSpin since it has some nasty bugs and isn’t actively maintained anymore. It’s time to go pro and also build the software myself, not just the hardware!
Project Omega – My take on a bartop arcade
Everything started when I found a coin acceptor on eBay but had no idea what to use it for. I normally try to find excuses to buy stuff I don’t need. 🙂 As for the coin acceptor, I tried to figure out what to use it for… I just loved the device itself, being able to collect coins and programmed it to potentially do a lot of cool stuff. After a lot of thinking I came up with the only sensible thing to do… build an arcade! 😀
