Eugene Jarvis of Raw Thrills described 2015 as an “amazing year” for his company.
To celebrate its achievements over the last 12 months, the company welcomed its team, business associates, friends and family members to The Chop Shop in Chigaco, Illinois. The event featured a Big Buck Hunter replica made entirely of ice.
“We had an amazing year at Raw Thrills, beginning with Jurassic Park Arcade setting earnings records everywhere and now closing out the year celebrating the 20th anniversary of our Play Mechanix studio, and the release of MotoGP - the coolest motorcycle racing simulator ever.
“It is such an exciting time in entertainment and we are accelerating our development of new and compelling concepts for 2016 and onward. Let the games begin!"
The company also marked the 20th anniversary of Play Mechanix, with which it merged in 2006.
“Gathering the entire Raw Thrills/Play Mechanix family together for this event was truly special and a testament to our dedication to the arcade video game industry,” said Play Mechanix president George Petro.
