Arcade

Did anyone have an arcade on their forum?

I remember arcade plugins used to bring in a lot of activity on forums. I don't see them anymore. Do you know any forums that still use them?

I haven’t had an arcade on my forum since the vBulletin 3 and 4 days.

i don’t think there’s any forum actively running an arcade these days. Flash is no longer supported by modern browsers, however, html 5 is. It’s the only thing that could power an actual arcade now. Unless they’re using ruffle as an emulator for the flash, which many forums wouldn’t do.

HTML with CSS, but a necessary PHP backend (depending on the forum software) to log stats (unless simple single-player games that you don't want to have save points with).

I have something in the works, but it's queued by the developer. Reinventing forum games.

I did have an arcade on my forum, and it was very popular. Even had users registering accounts just to play on it.

Back when I had AAF 1.0, I added an arcade and it was used by a lot of members. I think we even had some like yours who joined just to play the arcade.
