Bandai Namco Officially Announces Penlalive – New Arcade Rhythm Game

Back in late January, one of the first surprise location tests of the year to pop up was for a mysterious new arcade rhythm game by the name of “Penda Beats” from Bandai Namco.

Welcome to our coverage of IAAPA Expo Europe 2025, which was held in Barcelona, Spain this past week.

This Arduino Nano R4-controlled hourglass simulates sand with LEDs

Arduino Team — October 1st, 2025 Outside of playing board games, hourglasses are almost entirely pointless these days. And yet, they’re still incredibly satisfying. Watching the sand fall in a steady and consistent stream is downright mesmerizing. Sadly, you probably can’t make your own hourglass unless you happen to be very skilled at glassblowing.

That’s a fun visual that Grendel Studios turned into a real-life prop. The chest built by Grendel Studios isn’t an exact replica of what we see in the movie, but it...

Atlantic Records, Pt. 11 – 1956

Atlantic Records was the most influential, significant and important independent record label to come out of the late-1940s, during a time when there were many great, small indie labels being born. What gave Atlantic the advantage over Specialty, Chess, Modern, Vee-Jay, Exclusive, King, etc is the breadth of material, variety of music styles and the sheer number of hit records that led to the Rock...
