Long time no see biz. It has been relatively quiet about this project lately, but from my time lurking in their socials, it becomes very apparent that the team behind this one has not abandoned it yet, especially with their new "flightpaper" getting published to the updated website.

The team has introducted an updated roadmap that pertains to the project post-arcade lauch and it has some interesting foreshadowing:

>Aviator
"both the token to play and the ticket to win." This is pretty straightforward. Their game economy will be powered using Aviator as the native token.

>Prize Wall
Almost all modern IRL arcades have this. What is unique about this are the two things I iterated in the image. "top three scorers for EVERY game on the platform." This essentially incentivizes players who want access to exclusive merchandise for either personal use or resale to play the less popular games on the platform, creating a niche of trying new games that may have flown under the radar previously. Wallet addresses getting whitelisted... it took me a minute to wrap my head around this one, but what Aviator is essentially doing is linking your "profile" in the arcade to your wallet. This will start to make more sense later on in this post.

>The Hangar
"both digital and physical goods" goes on to iterate gaming consoles tokenized as NFTs can be redeemed... thinking deeper into this one, being able to mint an NFT using your "tickets" or Aviator Token that can grant you an item in real life... or you can sell that item... this creates incentive to both gain access to the prize wall and an outlet for spending tokens on speculative items such as limited run consoles, shoes, etc. instead of only speculating on token value itself. "Partner Project NFTs" meaning that the sky is the fucking limit because any company can host their exclusive merch here and get access to a market with an ungodly high barrier to entry.
