Vending Machine Timeless Fun

Vending Machine Timeless Fun : AR Core allows you take an interactive vending machine with you anywhere you go, whether it’s a trip to the bowling alley, a visit to an actual soda machine, or just hanging out your own backyard!

 

Why does this app exist? Let’s take a look at the official product description…

AR is getting more popular by the day, try it out now! 
Vending Machine Timeless Fun: AR Core has given you the opportunity to try out real AR! AR means Augmented Reality and basically gives you a fusion or mixture between the “real”world and the 3D simulated world.

That’s nice, but what can i do with this, you say?
Have you ever walked by a Vending Machine in thought: “Man, i really want that soda right about now” and hadn’t had enough cash on you to buy that can of soda. Now you can just turn on your smartphone and put up Vending Machine Timeless Fun: AR Core to buy this can of soda in the same environment that the real life Vending Machine is in! 

Game Features Vending Machine Timeless Fun : AR Core 
Real Augmented Reality experience combined with Vending Machine gameplay!
Unlock multiple vending machines to really shake things up!
Look to the left with your phone as it changes the way you see Vending Machines!
AR is here! Let us know what you think of these kind of mobile games!

I think that clears everything up. Thanks to Kevin, Jamison, Matt, Mappy, and bones for grabbing screenshots!

Double Dragon II

Double Dragon Series, River City/Kunio-kun Series

It always seemed like there must be a soda machine lurking somewhere in the Double Dragon series, and I finally found these in Double Dragon II for the Game Boy!

Of course, it’s worth noting that the Game Boy release of Double Dragon II was actually a re-skin (soda machines and all) of Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun: Bangai Rantōhen, an entry in the Kunio/Nekketsu High series.

Yet again, soda machines provide a unique window into video game history.

Gore: Ultimate Soldier

Gore: Ultimate Soldier

I love everything about this promotional blurb for Gore: Ultimate Solider, a 2002 FPS for Windows: “Anarchy reigns on Earth and you must train in the MEAT MACHINE to prove yourself.” Of course, with all that MEAT MACHINE training, you’ll need to stay properly hydrated.

I’ve never done this before, but I thought this might be a good chance to go “behind the soda machine” and discuss my process. Read more

Korpse-a-Cola gives Penelope “Bonebreaker” Jones the energy boost she needs to battle the zombie hordes in Skull Cracker, a 1996 brawler for Macintosh and Windows. Let’s take a closer look…

What’s not to love about a soda named Sewage? Thanks for the screenshots, Duncan!
