New Arcade Private Beta

Thanks for feedback:

- Am aware of lack of nav on view game page, will be addressed

- If you logout of website, and then login, you will now be auto logged in on arcade from now on. Can't retroactively do this on all accounts unfortunately. Only will be like this once per device for registered users.

- Think I know what you mean about 2 headers, will look into this

- iPhone doesn't allow full screen (annoying!) I'll address this with an error message

I'd love to try! :)

I'd love to have a look please

You both have access

I'd like to get access to the new arcade! Thanks!

You got it!

Me too please.

You're in

Can I try?

TIA

Yes please, Tom - really looking forward to this :-)

You both have access

Cheers Tom, It's looking great so far! I'll upload a few of my games when I get the chance.

Here's some initial feedback:

1. As mentioned by —, a back button from a selected game would be useful.

2. An option to follow a dev so you can jump straight to their games would be really handy (plus notifications when they add new content).

3. Is the "Top Games" selection determined by most upvotes/favourites or is it more complex than that?

4. When you select a game there's no indication which categories the game belongs in. I'd also indicate if the game is WIP or Test/Experiment on the game page.

5. Are games on the previous version of the arcade going to be automatically uploaded or is the slate being wiped clean?

Thanks for feedback!

- Next update has full menu on view game page

- When viewing game, the follow button allows you to follow author of game. Although haven't implemented notifications yet for when they publish a new game. On to-do list!

- Top games ordered by vote score currently. Will need weight adjusting at some point.

- Will add game content type in next update on view game pahge

Regarding previous arcade, plan to import about half of the old arcade games. I'll be using filters to filter out low quality games as best as possible (EG ones with no votes, very few players etc).

Just released update with lots of fixes/usability improvements

Oh, that's some great news !

Been waiting for the new arcade for a while!

I will gladly look at it, please let me in :)

(meanwhile i will spread the word that the updated arcade is on the way in russian community, some folks are waiting for it)
