Act - Cabinet - Video Game Marquee

Description

The Act is an interactive comedy that was created by a team of former Disney animators. With The Act, you enjoy the experience of playing a video game that's also a high quality, hand drawn, animated feature film. In The Act, you take the role of Edgar, a shy window washer who is tossed into a strange role and must keep up the deception The Act as the story unfolds through entertaining scenes and comic adventures. The Act runs on a hard drive mounted in a custom Linux PC. The cabinet itself sports a 26 inch 1366x768 resolution LCD monitor and a specialized internal daughter-board that interfaces the PC with the coin-op hardware. The Act's unique controller is an innovative optical sensor knob.
