fightbox.shack is an yet another arcade in the shackspace.

Play actual games running on Linux with the expirience back in 1991. We thought games like Hotline Miami, Broforce and Street Fighter V would add more „awesome“, if played in an oldscool cab. Yes, all those three games demand different Controls, therefor we need changeable Interfaces.

We already tested Valves SteamOS, but since we couldn't change Big Pictures resolution we decided to run Ubuntu 14.04 and installed the Steam Client.
