An easy way to share your game with the world is to publish it on the Scirra Arcade! We host the game for you so you don't need to find your own web server.

Limitations

To ensure players have a good experience on the Scirra Arcade, some features are blocked. Your game cannot navigate to another page, nor open any popup windows. If you wish to provide a link to a website, put it in the game's description instead, or one of the other fields such as the app store link.

Exporting

To export for the Scirra Arcade, simply choose the Scirra Arcade option when exporting. You'll get a zip file when the export finishes. Upload this file to the Scirra Arcade and follow the additional steps. (You'll need to be logged in to a Scirra account to be able to do this.) You may need to provide additional details such as the instructions for the game, and some images to represent it. Your game may need to be approved by a moderator as an anti-spam measure. Once everything's approved, then your game will be live!

Good luck!

Good luck publishing your game! Can you get in to the Top games section?

  • i cannot upload my game it said "run time script appears to be invalid"

  • Construct 3 games can no longer be added to the Scirra Arcade. Please fix the exporter or take that down as an option!

    • Yes, im having trouble even uploading my game as well. I have C3, and it's asking me to use c2 runtime. I know I can switch back but it's a lot of work that I have to do, such as take out things that C3 runtime uses that C2 runtime don't uses. C3 runtime runs very smoothly in my game and it's a shame it can't upload. However prayer sure do changes things and I know for sure someone is going to get down to the bottom of this so that C3 games can be add and it's runtime can be playable in the Scirra Arcade. I even made a post about this too in the "general discussion" forums.

    • Is this fixed? Can you upload it now?

      • Yes, it is fixed now! Construct just updated a WHOLE NEW layout page of the scrirra arcades website! It looks fresh clean and up to date, as well as more professional and allows C3 RUNTIME! I cannnot not wait to upload my game now! Prayer sure do changes things!

  • Hi I am on a laptop and the website you told me is blocked for me so idk how to do it now

  • i need a zip

  • Published a game to Scirra Arcade that works fine in the editor previewer but on publishing the arrow keys don't work initially on startup. They seem to move the game window but not the game sprite. Any help appreciated!
