About the game

Welcome! The Deepdale Arcade is a community-driven interactive light installation in Moon Valley featuring classic games, Pac-Man and Pong, played on a giant rooftop screen made of 2,200 LED pixels. Players use two joysticks in the front yard to compete against Santa, Elf or each other. The installation is 100% homemade, powered by Arduinos, a lot of lights and soundbites, one nerd and an absolutely bonkers number of hours spent coding and debugging, with nostalgic sound effects taking you back to the old school.

Hours: Nightly, 5:30 to 10 p.m., through Jan 5th. Thanks for playing!

BONUS BALLS!

Catching the green bonus ball temporarily increases the length of your paddle. :)

Catching the yellow bonus ball temporarily slows the speed on your side. :)

Catching the red bonus ball temporarily shortens the length of your paddle. :(

Catching the blue bonus ball allows you to temporarily make the ball disappear when you press your button. Time it right so your opponent gets confused!
