  • Devlog #1: The Arcade Takes Shape - 24 October 2025

    It’s been over two months since Game Design at WVU Arcade was officially revealed, and a lot has happened in that time! From modeling to level design to art and optimization, the student-led team has been hard at work to take this game from a very basic layout with only a few implemented cabinets to a full arcade with a story! So let's get into everything we’ve accomplished so far:19 of our 20 games have been added to the arcade! The layout has been properly upgraded adding two levels for new additional ideas.GD@WVU Arcade now has a new mascot!

  • SpyCats gains a new life through the GDIM Arcade - 14 August 2025

    If you've been following this page since its launch, you may have noticed some changes. Spy Cats was our first attempt at releasing on Steam. We learned a lot by working on it. Eventually, we realized it probably was not going to get to a level we felt comfortable releasing as a full game. Unfortunately, that happens a lot when you work on a semester timeline, like we do. That also means, however, that we get the opportunity to see a lot of small, quick play unique ideas and prototypes. A lot of these get published individually on itch.io and are highlighted on our program's https://gdimwvu.itch.io/ page. We decided to start looking at what we think the best of these are and invite them to be part of our collection, then release here as its own unique story. This year's capstone class will be focused on building that experience from a prototype we began last school year. It will also be…

Short description

A 3d arcade game in which you fix and play the machines in your store to get ready for opening day. All games are created by students and alumni from Game Design and Interactive Media at West Virginia University.

About this game

If you like this game and want to support our mission, donate on our website . Donations go towards operation costs, getting students/community members to conferences to demo their work, and other professional development opportunities. Our Game: Hidden away in a small town in the heart of Mountaineer Country, an old arcade waits for you to rebuild it. In this 3d narrative adventure arcade game, you have purchased an arcade and need to get each machine working in order to prepare for opening day. Each game you "fix"/ get in working condition will launch its own game as well as provide juicy character backstory. Why did you buy a defunct arcade, abandoned in the 90s? What did you hope to accomplish in this tiny mountain town that you returned home to? Fixing the games also allows you to earn tickets to do upgrades and refurbish more machines, because despite the fact that you own the place, you'd never think of being dishonest and just do whatever you wanted without doing the work needed first. Why did we make this? We wanted to make a game that highlighted the most interesting projects the students at West Virginia University have dreamed up since the Game Design and Interactive Media program's creation. This first compilation game is to celebrate our students, the program's anniversary, and help better support the mission of the studio (MonRiverGames): "to provide educational opportunities in game development to our members." Whether that's attending conferences or funding stipends, we want to be able to have an impact on our members' growth. We hope to use this game to promote our students and raise the funds needed to help their professional development. Games are made in West Virginia? There is a game program at West Virginia University? Yes! There's a few cooperative studios, contract studios, and for-profit studios. There's also- us! We're a non profit community game development studio that works in close partnership with the Game Design and Interactive Media undergraduate program at West Virginia University (WVU). We were founded in 2021 during the pandemic as a space for students and community members to gain experience making games locally in a pro…

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026
  • Lowest observed: Free
  • Highest observed: Free

Game Design at WVU Arcade's USD price history spans from Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is Free, the highest is Free, and the first visible tracked price is Free. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Game Design at WVU Arcade's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free, from Oct 5, 2026 through Oct 5, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free. The latest run records Free for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: Free
  • Current list price: Free
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Game Design at WVU Arcade at Free in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
