Build Arcade Games Faster With Proven Tools
Skip months of foundational development and start creating your game with an engine built specifically for arcade experiences.
Back to HomeWhat Engine Licensing Brings You
Access to our proprietary arcade game engine means you can focus on what makes your game unique instead of rebuilding fundamental systems from scratch. The engine handles the technical heavy lifting while you concentrate on creating engaging player experiences.
Dramatically reduced development timelines from months to weeks for core mechanics
Pre-built arcade mechanics that feel polished and responsive right from the start
Comprehensive documentation that gets your team productive quickly
Technical support when you encounter challenges or need guidance
You'll move from concept to working prototype faster than you thought possible, with tools designed specifically for arcade game development rather than trying to adapt general-purpose engines.
The Challenge of Starting From Scratch
Building an arcade game on a general-purpose engine means spending weeks or months on foundational systems before you can even start implementing your actual game ideas. Physics, collision detection, input handling, scoring systems—all the technical infrastructure that players never see but absolutely need to work correctly.
Maybe you've experienced the frustration of trying to make a general engine feel responsive enough for arcade gameplay. Or you've spent countless hours tweaking physics parameters that still don't quite capture that classic arcade feel. Perhaps you've looked at the learning curve for major engines and wondered if there's a more focused alternative.
For small teams and indie developers, time spent building foundational systems is time not spent on the creative aspects that will actually make your game stand out. Every hour wrestling with engine configuration is an hour you're not designing levels, refining mechanics, or testing with players.
What if you could start with an engine already optimized for arcade games, with all those foundational systems ready to use?
Our Engine Approach
Our arcade game engine was built from years of developing arcade titles. It's not trying to be everything for everyone—it's focused specifically on what arcade games need, which means less complexity and faster development for your project.
Arcade-Optimized Mechanics
The engine includes pre-built systems for the mechanics that define arcade games: tight controls, precise collision detection, responsive physics, scoring and combo systems, screen wrapping, bullet patterns, and more. These aren't generic implementations—they're tuned specifically for the feel arcade players expect.
Customizable Templates
Start with templates for common arcade game types—shooters, platformers, puzzle games—and modify them to match your vision. The templates provide solid foundations while remaining flexible enough to support unique gameplay ideas. You're not locked into rigid structures.
Clear Documentation & Support
Comprehensive documentation covers everything from basic setup to advanced techniques. Video tutorials demonstrate common workflows. And when documentation isn't enough, technical support provides direct assistance. You won't feel stuck or alone while learning the engine.
Your Development Journey With The Engine
Working with our engine follows a natural progression from initial setup through finished game development.
Getting Started
After licensing, you receive access to the engine, complete documentation, and initial training materials. Most teams have their development environment configured and a basic template running within the first day. The setup process is straightforward—we've refined it over many projects.
Building Your Game
You'll start by selecting or creating a template that matches your game concept. From there, you customize mechanics, implement your unique features, and refine the player experience. The engine handles performance optimization, cross-platform compatibility, and technical infrastructure automatically.
Ongoing Development
As your game evolves, the engine grows with you. Regular updates add new capabilities and maintain compatibility with emerging platforms. Community forums connect you with other developers using the engine. Technical support remains available throughout your development process, not just during initial setup.
Many developers report that working with our engine feels liberating—they can finally focus on making their game fun instead of fighting with technical infrastructure.

Why This Engine Works for Arcade Games
Our engine was built specifically for arcade game development based on real project experience. The architecture reflects what actually matters for arcade games rather than trying to support every possible game type.
Performance-Focused Architecture
Arcade games demand consistent high performance—players notice even small frame drops. The engine prioritizes frame rate stability and responsive input handling. We've optimized for the specific patterns arcade games follow, which means your game runs smoothly even on modest hardware.
Proven Through Real Projects
This engine has powered numerous shipped arcade games across different platforms. The mechanics libraries contain solutions to problems we've encountered and solved repeatedly. You benefit from that accumulated knowledge without having to discover solutions yourself through trial and error.
Active Development & Support
The engine receives regular updates that add capabilities based on developer feedback and platform requirements. When new platforms emerge or APIs change, we handle the adaptation. Your games remain compatible and deployable without requiring major rewrites.
Most teams reach their first playable prototype within 1-2 weeks of licensing, compared to 1-2 months when building from scratch. That accelerated timeline means faster feedback, more iteration time, and earlier market entry.
Licensing With Confidence
Committing to a new game engine is a significant decision. Here's how we make that decision easier.
Comprehensive Demo Access
Before licensing, you can explore a feature-limited demo version. This lets your team evaluate whether the engine fits your workflow and requirements. No pressure to commit until you've actually tried working with it.
Technical Consultation
We offer initial consultations to discuss your specific game concept and confirm the engine can handle your requirements. If we think a different approach would serve you better, we'll tell you honestly.
Onboarding Support
Your first month includes dedicated onboarding assistance. We'll help your team get productive quickly and address any initial questions. The goal is smooth integration into your workflow, not leaving you to figure everything out alone.
Responsive Technical Support
When you encounter challenges during development, technical support provides actual solutions rather than generic advice. We understand the engine deeply and can help troubleshoot specific issues quickly.
Getting Started With Engine Licensing
If using our engine sounds like the right choice for your project, here's the process.
Initial Discussion
Contact us to discuss your project requirements and game concept. We'll talk about whether the engine fits your needs and answer questions about capabilities, workflow, and licensing options. You can also request demo access to evaluate the engine hands-on.
License Agreement
Once you decide to proceed, we'll finalize the licensing agreement appropriate for your project scope. You'll receive engine access, documentation, and initial training materials. Setup typically completes within a business day.
Onboarding & Development
Your team goes through initial onboarding with dedicated support. From there, you begin development using the engine's templates and mechanics libraries. Technical support remains available as you build your game.
From initial contact to your team actively developing usually takes 1-2 weeks, depending on your schedule and any demo evaluation time you need.
