Dot Arcade WiiU

Dot Arcade is an unusual combination of three different titles based on the same theme - moving bright, LED-like dots. The package for Nintendo Wii U includes Mr. Snake, Dogde Club and Rally Driver. The production is the responsibility of the duo Andrew Lim and James Montagna.

None of the three titles available in the package offers a feature layer. The creators in their assumptions wanted to create something that would simply provide good entertainment, without having to follow any history. In the case of Mr. Snake game, we take control of a huge galactic snake and try to absorb as many dots symbolizing fruits as possible. At the same time, watch out for obstacles that appear every now and then. These are also in the second position included in the Dot Arcade. At Dogde Club we must constantly avoid other couples dancing on the dance floor - by playing the dancer, we have to survive as long as possible without any collision. The third and last game from the package is Rally Driver, in which we sit at the controls of a fast car - the longer the route we go without touching the elements appearing on the screen, the more points we get.

In each case, the whole is strongly conventional - all elements are represented only by luminous dots, arranged at most in simple forms. The only manifestation of more advanced graphics are the images that appear on the sides of the main board - hand drawn represent the heroes, in which the presumption we play.
