We can't wait to share the full cabinet with you at @MAGFest , and if we won't see you there, then hopefully we can at the official launch a bit later in the year! See you soon!

The cab will also feature lots of aesthetic touches that really make it scream "Big Engine", with light-up base, a steel "grill" and engine exhaust piping

It just didn't feel like a true piece of nightmare-punk machinery without a lush interior. We're adding upholstery and a curtain affect for the marquee, which itself will use a custom version of the logo, complete with a fully 3D stained glass effect to really make it pop.

So let's talk details! We wanted the cab to feel less like "operating a race car" and more "piloting the contraption". Nearly every input is a mechanical switch with satisfying feedback. We heavily customized a sim racer steering system and sequential shifter for the main inputs.

Friends, It's a Nightmare-Before-Christmas-Miracle: the full render of the Nightmare Kart cabinet! Our lead designer, @mattfryed has cooked up something extremely special. We wanted to wait until it was as close to final as possible before showing it, and that day is here.

A black arcade cabinet with the words "PARTICLE MACE" on the marquee, with the second A in bright teal. You can see bright yellow shapes, on the right side, and a joystick and button set up for four players. The screen is in attract mode so there is some gameplay visible. On the left, but cut off in the picture, is another arcade cabinet called Super Sharp Birds, with a bird and egg motif in bright red and blue against white.

A vectrex console, which is a vector display based home video console with an in-built vertically oriented CRT monitor (so much taller than wide). It shows the words "PARTICLE MACE" on the screen. In front of it, there is an IBM joystick controller with a big red button on it.

With Hexcade complete, there's been some shuffling of the games. You'll now find Volleygon at Windjammer in Ridgewood, and Powerboat Italia '88 at All Night Skate, while most of the other games reside at @wondervillenyc. Please check them out and support the indie arcade scene!
