Short arcade rounds that reward one more go

UGB Arcade is an independent game studio in London, operated by UGLY BOY LTD. We build quick-fire arcade games for Android phones around a single idea: a glowing puck, a handful of bumpers and a clock that keeps running.

A round lasts about a minute. You tilt the table with one thumb, the puck caroms off whatever it meets, and every rebound feeds a chain that multiplies the score.

How a round plays out

Drop. The puck enters from the top edge at a fresh angle each time.
Tilt. A single thumb tips the table left or right and steers the puck towards the next bumper.
Chain. Rebounds that never touch the floor stack into a growing multiplier.
Drain. The round closes when the timer empties or the puck slips past the bottom rails.

Sixty seconds, shown in full

We design our games so that a complete round fits inside a wait at the bus stop or the gap between two songs. The timer sits in plain view and only you can stop it: switch away mid-round and the table freezes with the puck exactly where it was.

House rules for every table

Scoring rules appear on screen before the first drop, so any big total can be explained.
Identical inputs give identical results; luck never decides who tops the board.
Sound and vibration have separate switches, so a round can stay silent on the train.
Each new table brings its own shape, colour and bumper set, so it feels new under the thumb.
