About
Welcome to Arcadox, a game where classic Arkanoid nostalgia meets the aesthetics of the early internet and 80s dreams.
Forget boring backgrounds. In Arcadox, you bounce a ball through digital worlds where pixel art intertwines with glitches, statues, and endless rows of palm trees at sunset. The game is specifically designed for those who appreciate not only a challenge but also a visual vibe.
WHAT AWAITS YOU:
15 LEVELS WITH SOUL: We didn't just place blocks. Each level has its own geometry, secrets, and visual design. From simple pyramids to complex labyrinths, you'll be sure to guide the ball where you want it.
UNIQUE STYLE:
Webpunk: Glitches, rendering errors, the aesthetics of the "digital abyss" and 90s monitors.
Vaporwave: Soft pastel colors, Greek architecture, Japanese characters, and that same feeling of "sunset nostalgia."
SOUNDTRACK: Music in Arcadox isn't just background music, it's a full-fledged part of the game. Specially selected tracks in the synthwave and retrowave genres create the perfect mood for immersing yourself in the game for an hour or two.
VARIETY OF MECHANICS: This isn't just a "score a point." Destroy blocks, collect bonuses, avoid obstacles, and watch the game transform as you progress.
Immerse yourself in the nostalgia of a future that never happened.

Даже в самые древние времена я не помню арканоидов в котором отсутствует физика удара ракетки по мячику. Мячику всё равно с какой скоростью его ударяют и какой частью ракетки.

Арканоид со своими фишками, где даже потеря жизни – это сбитие этой самой жизни шариком, а не как мы все привыкли. Главное, чтобы тебя не укачало, помни об этом! В общем, занятный арканоид со своими секретами, приятно поиграть! Надеюсь, что вскоре пройду его.
[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop][b]Warning: AI Slop[/b][/url] This game is partially or completely made with talentless, soulless AI generated content.[/quote] Arcadox is a "template" flip/kitbash, and not a properly developed game. The "developer" filled out a basic template in the craptastic GameMaker Studio (a blight on gaming), vibe coded and slapped a bunch of disgusting AI slop assets on it, and put it on Steam as if it was their own game. This is worse than Atomic Fabrik's usual MO of stealing game assets and pretending he created them... now Russian developers are trying to scam people into paying them for AI slop. This is disgusting. Gamesforgames have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked/alt accounts.

There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. As mentioned, this features really godawful, "wrong" looking AI slop instead of genuinely and sincerely created game assets. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating real game assets or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks bad because of that decision. AI slop sticks out like a sore thumb... and it comes across as insulting. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets usually lack the budget and talent to do the rest of the job of game development properly, too, and that's glaringly obvious here. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts. Some of the defects in the game can be attributed to the choice of using the GameMaker Studio construction kit/toolset. This is a very poor quality toolset favoured by amateur developers as it's cheap and requires little in the way of development skill, but unfortunately has very limited capabilities. Just as you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear, you can't make a great video game if you use a terrible engine. GameMaker Studio is most commonly used to make retro pixel shovelware and cash grabs. A strong argument can be made that construction kits like GameMaker Studio should never be used to make games for profit, as the "developer", Gamesforgames has done here. These construction kits are intended to teach people some of the basic principles of game development, and to make small demos to pass around with friends. They're not intended to replace to actual work of real, professional game developers. So it's inappropriate when amateurs try to use these for profit, without any actual, real game development effort taking place. This doesn't result in products that have any real meaningful value for gamers. [quote][b][url=https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/federal-register-notices/16-cfr-part-465-trade-regulation-rule-use-consumer-reviews-testimonials-final-rule]Warning: Review Manipulation![/url][/b] This game features a number of fake positive reviews from accounts known to be in the business of review manipulation/paid reviews. They're all written in either Russian, broken English or ChatGPT AI slop, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this blatant, unethical review manipulation. This is done to deceive and scam gamers into paying for a bad product. Due to the 2024 FTC ruling (16 CFR § 465.4, 15 U.S.C. § 45), these fake reviews are a violation of US Federal Law.[/quote] Let's talk about price and the value this represents for us gamers. Should you buy this game? Is it among the best the Steam catalogue has to offer? Arcadox is relatively cheap at $1 USD, but it's not worth it. Ethics aside, given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend. The use of AI slop is a direct insult to gamers and real, ethical content creators and artists everywhere. AI models are trained on copyrighted intellectual property without permission from the owners. Using AI slop in a published product should be seen as supporting these copyright violations.
Всегда любил арканойды, тут еще и закос под горячую линию
Immerse yourself in nostalgia for a future that never happened
Хороший арканоид - это редкость в наше время. Arcadox в этот процент редкости не попадает. 1. Вечно качающийся уровень... Кто-то хочет чтоб меня укачало? 2. Шарику абсолютно без разницы как ты его отбиваешь - он в 98% движется по той же траектории, почти всегда вверх-вниз, и никогда резко влево-вправо. 3. Проиграть можно, если шарик собьёт 3 сердечка внизу уровня. Исходя из полученных данных получается, что задача игрока - защищать какое-нибудь одно сердечко, а шарики там сами зарешают (ибо игрок по сути и не может на них повлиять особо). Лайк за музыку и стилизацию. Пиксельность и визуал, в целом, сомнительно. Физику не завезли. Челлендж отсутствует. Достижений нет. Хватило 5 минут, чтобы понять что тут к чему. Более тратить время не намерен. Цена по скидке - более-менее справедлива, но полагаю, что ниже её не даёт поставить платформа Steam.
[b]I spent hundreds of hours playing Arkanoids as a kid.[/b] It's a classic game where you break bricks with a ball. Everything is done in bright neon colors, and there are lots of different levels. If you love this genre and want to relax, try this game. Nostalgia for the old days is guaranteed.
