Here is also a video that will show the particle effects:

Also if you take a look at the background you will see me waving  ;) The whole background can be animated like that... In fact it is but the part of the textures without me doesn't change yet in this version... The number off frames is only limited by available ram...I tried up to 500 frames of animation and there was no speed hit at all!

Thanks  :D
Yeah the imploding and exploding models are really fun. The Robotrons have a special function in Robocade that will be a surprise  ;) But imploding and exploding models are also for example used to select gamelists. Instead of shooting Galaxians you can with Robocade shoot at imploding and exploding models in the arcade itself, they apear below the ceiling and above the cabinets like a shooting gallery ... for example shoot the pacman model and you go to the maze gamelist ...a bit crazy but fun...  ;D

But you can't see the animated screenshots throught the robots head!

btw, IRobot model should be next... (with the background with the big eye and some birds coming)

Yes you can...just take a higher viewing angle  ;)
But seriously the Robotrons appear only in the arcade for a specific reason...and it is infact kinda related to the big eye of Irobot...let me just say this...zooming in on the eyes of the Robotrons is definately a big part of the real purpose of Robocade  ;D
