Arcade Collection is a four-in-one arcade experience.

This project is powered by an my unreleased  Water Engine 2.0, and it combines classic gameplay, modern systems, and post-processed visuals in a lightweight package.

The collection includes:

• Clicker: Test your speed and precision by clicking 20 targets as fast as possible.
• Bounce: Catch bouncing balls before you lose all your lives.
• Duck Runner: A Google Dino Runner-inspired game where you play as a duck dodging obstacles.
• Tetris: Classic block-dropping fun with clean controls and smooth rendering.

This project started as an engine redesign and my wife's constant request for me to make Tetris for her. The engine still need a ton of work before releasing but v1.0 is available on Github. 

 How To Play:

Each game follows classic rules:

Clicker → Left-Click targets as fast as you can.
Bounce → Move and catch balls before losing lives.
Duck Runner → Jump over or duck under obstacles.
Tetris → Rotate and drop blocks to clear lines.

 About the Developer:

Will : GitHub

Peace, I’m Will — programmer, designer, and artist. I built this  arcade collection in C++ using the newest iteration of my Water Engine. An SFML 3 game engine.

I spent decades as a traditional artist, always searching for a medium where creativity and logic could merge. In 2024, at 35, I started game development and never looked back.

Code, art, mechanics, worlds... my lifelong pursuit.
“If you wish to be a creator, create.”
