Key features

Playable embeds

Lightweight wrappers serve demos that run instantly in browsers, tuned for low latency and immediate interaction.

HUD toolkit

Modular heads-up elements: health, timers, leaderboards and callouts that pulse and respond to input.

Asymmetric grids

Dynamic tiles that reorder for emphasis on mobile, then reveal cinematic spreads on larger screens.

Our story

ArcadeForge began as a tiny tool for friends who wanted to show real play, not trailers. We built a stripped experience that prioritized immediate touch and joy. Over time it became a design language: kinetic headlines, HUD-first thinking and small bursts of delight that increase retention.

We keep the kit small. Templates focus on quick iteration, letting creators test core mechanics and share playable links with streamers, press and players in minutes.

What creators say

"We moved from static trailers to playable teasers. Within days clickthroughs and time-on-demo doubled. The minimal HUD made our core loop obvious."

— N. Ortega, solo developer

"Embedding a demo was shockingly simple. Press loved the immediate link; streamers loaded it in under ten seconds. More hands-on time = more coverage."

— A. Phelps, studio producer

FAQ

Do I need an SDK?
