Reception

In Japan, Game Machine listed Aqua Jack on their October 15, 1989 issue as being the fourteenth most-successful upright arcade unit of the year.[1]

gollark: Or what exactly Opus (audio codec used by Discord) does to it.
gollark: It doesn't work very well because I don't know DSP.

gollark: I was just espeak-ing /dev/urandom, and definitely not encrypted data which would be indistinguishable from that.
gollark: Also that, yes.
