A downloadable arcade-game

Buy Now$1.99 USD or more

Claw Machine Arcade Game turns a fully-drawn neon arcade cabinet into a playable minigame inside your RPG Maker MZ project. Marquee, glass prize chamber, joystick, buttons, coin slot, and LED credit readouts — all rendered in code, no image assets required, and it scales cleanly from 816×624 up to 1280×720.

Features

  • A complete arcade-cabinet UI: lit marquee, steel-framed glass chamber, control deck with joystick + buttons, and green/amber LED readouts.
  • Free 8-directional aiming — move the claw anywhere over the prize bed.
  • A hybrid grab that blends skill and luck: aim proximity, a timed grip-strength meter, and a final hold roll weighted by each prize.
  • "Weak-claw" feel — heavier prizes slip more often, just like the real thing.
  • Token economy with an in-scene "buy tokens with gold" prompt, or sell tokens from any shop/event.
  • Prize types: Items, Weapons, Armor, or a Collectible counter variable (perfect for plushie collections).
  • Fully configurable prize pool, difficulty, costs, and marquee title via plugin parameters — ships with a working demo pool so it runs the moment you enable it.
  • Optional "on-win" common event hook for custom rewards, cutscenes, or SFX.
Controls: Arrow keys / WASD to move · OK to drop and lock the grip meter · Shift to buy tokens · Cancel to leave.
Compatibility: RPG Maker MZ. Terms of use: free for commercial and non-commercial projects; credit appreciated but not required.
