## **History**

### **Gameplay & Features**

The game revolves around the player programming shows and earning tickets. Shows have audio provided by .WAV files. The player uses key binds set to each movement to program shows. Shows are saved in a .\_shw format, with the "\_" being the initial for what stage the file will run on. Programming shows will earn tickets, which can be redeemed for prizes at the prize counter.

The map has the player spawn at a front entrance, going right will send you to the New Rock-afire show, going left will send you to the Classic Rock-afire show and prize counter. There is a hallway at the sides of both showrooms connecting them in a loop. Extra hallways connecting the Chuck E. Cheese shows to the prize counter and front entrance were added in 1.21.
