How do I upload my games?
You need to download and install Construct 2 r204.2 or later. Simply select "Scirra Arcade" as the export option. Then visit the game upload page.
What about my old games?
Your old games are safe, and will be accessible in a couple of weeks from a special URL (still got a couple of issues to solve). Don't worry, nothing is lost! Once they are available via the special URL and ample time has passed (~4 weeks) we will be permanently deleting the old arcade inlcuding all the games that were uploaded.
I found a bug/have a suggestion
Great :) Please post all bugs, comments and suggestions in this forum thread. Also, thank you everyone for your patience in getting this arcade out. I realise that it was (significantly) later than was expected! It has however now landed and I hope you all enjoy using it.
