Hi, thanks for the question! The arcade will just be desktop computers so please program as you would for mouse and keyboard. We will also have a few controllers for the arcade if you'd prefer to program for something like a Logitech controller. Hope this helps.
Viewing post in Question about the presentation at the festival
Correct! The games will be rated by guests at the In the Making Festival in Cork, but they will be communicated via judge scores here on itch.io. So nobody is required to be in person for the event! For instance, if the average audience score at the festival is 5, we would rate the game here as 5 in the given criteria.
