Pick a cabinet.

Original console- and computer-shaped games the Code Factory builds to learn from. Each tier preserves meaningful constraints, from indexed colour and fixed frame pacing to layered sprites and polygons. The new Amiga bench starts with a tested 320×256, 50 Hz engine; its first original football-management cabinet follows only when the campaign has real depth.
