Asteroids Recharged (c) 2024 Alan-1, Inc. Return to the dangers of space in this official sequel to the iconic Asteroids series. The familiar gameplay has been enhanced with power-ups, new rock types, challenges, achievements, 2 or 3-player multiplay, and more. While it is a port of the console game of the same name, Alan-1 has drastically changed the game flow to fall more in line with the Atari arcade original. So much has changed that it could be considered a sequel to the console version as opposed to a simple port. Changes include: The game has been divided into waves (256 total); there are selectable user difficulties that will jump to a certain wave; the UFOs behave more like the original ones; some power-ups behaviors have changed to make them more user-friendly; voice overs have been added; and it features integration from Alan-1's score/achievements tracking app called Major League eSports (MLeS). - TECHNICAL - Operates using an Intel-based PC and a proprietary I/O board. There are two models, the Pro and the Deluxe. PRO is for smaller venues and has two sets of player controls and a 32" HD screen. The DX was designed for FECs, featuring a 55" HD screen, LED T-Molding, and three player stations. Both cabinets come with some hardware force feedback features. These are: - A fan for each player station that blows air on the user's hands when they push the 'thrust' button. - Two rumble motors, a small and a large motor that activate depending upon what is taking place in-game - A solenoid that knocks the cabinet when the player dies or gets a bonus life. - TRIVIA - Released at the very end of October 2024. It won 1st place in the 2024 IAAPA Brass Ring Award for Games & Devices. The game first appeared at Amusement Expo 2024 in Las Vegas. It had only been in development for six weeks, after Alan-1 had secured a licensing deal to bring Atari's "Recharged" series of games to arcades. Each cabinet is covered head-to-toe in artwork, created by an Argentinian comic book artist by the name of Alejandro Radio. There is also an official comic book for the game created by the same artist. - SERIES - 1. Asteroids [Upright model] (1979, ARC) 2. Asteroids Deluxe (1981, ARC) 3.
