METEOR MONSOON

Produced for the WeatherSys Admin multicab, a result of Arcade Common's receipt of a grant from the Brooklyn Arts Council, METEOR MONSOON was comissioned as a two-player arcade game using a unique dual spinner interface and with requisite integration of a weather-related API.

Teams of two work together in METEOR MONSOON to defend a different Earthly city each day from an onslaught of flaming meteors and insidious alien invaders by harnessing the power of rainfall to power turbocharged water cannons! Combining the classic premise of Missile Command with the faux-vector monitor style of newer games such as Utopia Must Fall, players must collect rainfall to replenish their cannons, and find unique ways to repel threats and extinguish fires in their cities. 

METEOR MONSOON uses real rainfall data across the globe each day to determine the amount of rainfall in each playthrough. Combined with a roguelike-style upgrade system, METEOR MONSOON makes for an updated take on the classic 80s score attack game.

Note: While the arcade version uses two analog spinners, this home version uses Xbox-style gamepads. You will need two gamepads to play. Future versions will contain a one-player mode.
