Arcade: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 17:30, 1 August 2025

The Arcade tab is where you can discover new games every day! The top headings feature selected games that are fun to play and have good design.

To get started, press on a game. It should now show a polaroid with various information, with varying amounts of floppy disks for levels below it. The game's description, a vertical portion of the box art, the likes and plays, the author and the title are shown. There are two button icons on the bottom-right to follow a creator and search their games. A convenient button below the title plays the game.

Press play and start the first level! Or continue from the last uncompleted level. (If every level is done, the green completed button redirects to the first level again.) Scroll down and press on a disk to see the box art of a level. The Play button will play that particular level.

In addition, there exist buttons below:

Back: Closes the game. You may also tap outside the game.
Save: Bookmark the game to the Saved section of this tab. This will makes it easier to play offline as well.
Like: Increase the game's likes by 1, boosting its popularity. The Dislike button will not show when lit.
Dislike: Indicate your disapproval and diminish its potential popularity. The like counter will remain unchanged. Likewise, when toggled, the Like button is hidden
- Report: Will show a window to confirm the game is inappropriate. The problematic game will be hidden from results.
Share: Share the game with others!
