Create your own online games website

AV Arcade is an arcade script that allows you to effortlessly create a site full of online games. Originally created as a flash games script, AV Arcade now supports all game types including Unity 3D & HTML5 games.

Rewritten to modern standards

AV Arcade 6 is a total rewrite for AV Arcade, rebuilt from the ground-up with powerful new features. Don't worry though, if you need an older version all purchases include a copy of AV Arcade 5.8.

Thousands of games ready to download

AV Arcade implements game feeds from some of the biggest publishers of web games. Straight from the admin panel you can install games to your site with just one click. The game file and thumbnail image are downloaded and all the game info (like description & instructions) are added automatically.

Game feeds in AV Arcade 6

Adding games made easy

With AV Arcade, adding and editing your site's content is super-easy. If you want to add a game that's not included in the game feeds, you have a number of options. Your users can also submit games to your site.

  • Enter a URL to the file (both local files and files hosted anywhere on the web)
  • Search for a file on your server
  • Upload a file from your computer/device
  • Download a file from another website to your site
  • Enter your own HTML code
  • User submissions

You can also schedule content to be published at a certain time in the future. Useful for keeping your site updated even when you're away.

File options
Flash, Unity, HTML5, Shockwave, iFrames

Any web game

AV Arcade supports all web game types. Flash, Unity, HTML5, Shockwave & anything else you throw at it. You can enter custom HTML or even embed a web page in an iFrame.

Supports downloadable games too

Enter a link to any zip, rar or exe file and AV Arcade will provide a download link instead of embedding the game.

Points

Users earn 'points' for completing certain activities on your arcade such as commenting, playing games and referring users. This total is then displayed next to their username throughout their site. Think of it like Xbox's Gamerscore, but for your site!

Ads Before Games

Alongside normal banner advertising you can also add an advert to show users before the game loads.

Limit Plays

You can force users to register after playing a certain number of games to encourage users to return to your arcade time and time again.
