  • Should all be fixed now and all stats up to date.

  • If you send the zip file you're trying to upload to tomjkc@Scirra.com I'll take a look for you

  • Stats are cached, so it will always be delayed a little. I've nearly solved the problem but it's quite complex, please bear with me! Most games stats should be pretty much up to date at the moment.

  • We forgot to ask all entries to provide their Scirra username when they emailed us! I've matched as many emails as I can to their Scirra accounts, but there are a few that had no associated Scirra account.

    If you entered the Windows 8 competition, but did not receive your contender badge please email support@scirra.com, with your username and a link to your entry.

    For everyone who won a prize, we will be in touch shortly!

  • Hello!

    Do you store all the games on own servers or external solutions?

    We have 1 dedicated server in USA that serves all content on this website. We've had no issues with bandwidth and we utilise HTML5's appcache heavily for arcade games.

    How do you manage the data (MySQL or directly filesystem for the games), what prog. language, server backend and so on.

    The arcade is written in ASP.net (c#). All data (the actual games) are stored in the file system. The database we use is MS-SQL.

    It's quite a simple setup. There's no reason it could not easily also be done in PHP with MySQL, I just went ASP.net c# Ms-SQL as it's what I'm most familiar with.
