J's Glitch

As you walk along the "Main Street" in the newest building on the Wavetronix Springs Campus, you'll find many interesting and fun things to explore and interact with.

The Polycade Arcade Cabinets are the last stop you can make before entering the main area.

Every quarter the two cabinets feature a retro title that employees and family members can play at their leisure.

This project started when the building was just a set of plans spread across the table. I explored many different directions before landing on the space pixel art. The art features a "glitch" or tear that references the area's name "J's Glitch".

The magnets applied to the machines feature the game that's loaded and ready to play. Die-cut control panels, custom cut side panels and back-lit LEDs make the cabinets jump off the wall.
