Flashing lights, bleeps and bloops, and the miasma of teenagers with nothing better to do. For many of us, this is the essence of the 1980s that indie gameArcadecraft (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/arcadecraft)captures, and if you're PC owner who likes the sound of an arcade creation and management sim - think Theme Hospital but with dingy arcades - developer Firebase has good news for you.
After shifting 65,000 copies on Xbox Live Indie Games, Arcadecraft now has a PC port that's "almost done" and will be available to Windows 7 users soon. It's now on the Humble Store (https://www.humblebundle.com/store/product/arcadecraft/Arkdowkd1) for pre-order, and Firebase has a Steam Greenlight page (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=222920987) up too. The PC port features the same arcade-building play (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/30/manage-an-80s-arcade-in-arcadecraft-coming-to-pc-and-xbla/) of the XBLIG original, but with some visual touch-ups like higher resolution textures and new character models and animations.
