Update notes via Steam Community

Libretro emulation has been taken to another level in this update with Lightgun support, Touchscreen support, Dual-Screen support, and Keyboard support!

Libretro Lightgun Support!

Lightgun support is now here! Works with new lightgun-enabled cabinets. A virtual lightgun will allow you to shoot in lightgun-enabled games.

We added support for 8 emulators for lightgun games: Final Burn Neo, MAME 2010, NEStopia, SNES9x, Genesis Plus GX, Mednafen PSX, Flycast, and Opera

Our lightgun system will also automatically switch to the correct lightgun device for each game for you. No need to hassle with swapping devices.

We have 4 lightgun cabinets available.




Touchscreen Support!

Touchscreen support is here and works with the two new dual-screen handhelds. Touchscreen support also comes with a virtual stylus and it is easy to toggle on and off.

Touchscreen support only works for DeSmume and Citra emulators.

Dual-Screen Consoles Support!

We've created 2 portable dual-screen consoles for use with dual-screen emulators.

The Partycon 2S and the Partycon S3D!


Keyboard Support!

DOSBox and Flycast now have full keyboard support. You can enable keyboard mode by going into Libretro Settings (Left Shift) and turning on Keyboard mode.

TIC-80 and LowRes NX support!

Fantasy consoles TIC-80 and LowRes NX are now supported as additional Libretro cores.
TIC-80 games can be found at https://tic80.com/play
LowResNX games can be found at: https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/programs.php

You can also create your own TIC-80 and LowRes NX games to load into Tower Unite!

More Arcade Cabinet Customizations - Trackball, Flightsticks, coloring Joysticks, etc.

Customize your digital arcade more with trackball, flightsticks and more coloring options.

Groups Now Save

For condo builders, groups now persistently save with your condo data! We also added group stashing support.

Groups allow you to combine items together so you can duplicate them or move them in one group.

How to group items: You can group items by selecting multiple items by holding Q, then click on an item. While holding Shift, you then click on additional items to multi-select them. Once you have all the items you want to group, press G to group them. You can ungroup by pressing U on a selected group.

Projector Bounce Lighting

Projectors now have a more dynamic and advanced bounce lighting system that fills the room with lighting ambience from the screen's projection. The projector also now supports Libretro emulators.
