The arcade is back!
« on: January 03, 2009, 03:16:52 am »
The arcade is finally back, altough in a totally different form. Since the old system had separate user accounts, it wasn't very convenient. However there is now a decent arcade system for SMF that I can use and is, like the Download System, compatible with the portal too. Because of the different coding, we couldn't install the old games yet. However, in the future, we may install them back, altough they will have their highscore system disabled since they were designed for JCink arcade and IPB arcade.

Some people have been waiting for this feature return for a long time. The arcade is now avaliable through the navigation bar below the banner. Here you will be able to find a bunch of classics that I found on the web, mostlty flash ports of games from the '80s and '90s such as Frogger, Donkey Kong Jr., Duck Hunt, Starcraft and Tetris!

However keep in mind that arcade usage is restricted to members who has at least 50 posts since they signed up. Also, if the arcade supports java, there are some chances that Omnimaga proprietary games will be added too.

Have fun but don't spend too much time in there. We want to see Halo for calculators in the future. ;)

Woot I loved the old Omnimaga Arcade. I'm glad to see it back up.

Edit: I don't have enough posts to use it :(
