Vortex

 
 

Vortex is an upcoming arcade cabinet game for two players.

The game utilizes a simple control scheme - a spinner and a single button.

The spinner gives players a great balance of speed and precision. By spinning while hitting the ball you can curve it, creating the chance for angle shots and fake-outs. The button winds up the paddle before shooting forward, giving players the chance to hit the ball back extra hard or making a slow trick shot with proper timing.

The game’s hardware is still in prototype form. We’re well into developing a table-style cabinet that’ll bring the game to life with light strips that react to volleys and points as the game progresses. Check out some sketches below!
