Built-In Monetization & Revenue Features

• Ad Management System — Multiple placement types: banner ads, interstitial ads, pre-game ads, sidebar ads, and game-specific advertising. Easy ad code management from the admin panel.
• Virtual Currency Economy (GP) — A complete purchase-only virtual currency system. Players buy GP packs via integrated payment gateways, then spend GP in the shop, on tournament entries, and on premium items. Every transaction is recorded in an immutable ledger with built-in fraud protection.
• Shop & Inventory System — Sell avatar parts, profile badges, cover frames, utility items, and digital downloads. Race-protected checkout prevents double-spending. Inventory management with expiry support keeps items moving.
• Voucher & Coupon Codes — Three redemption modes (unique, shared, public) with per-user deduplication and max-use caps. Run promotions, reward loyal players, or offer GP grants via codes.
• Digital Downloads — Sell downloadable goods with signed-URL delivery. Configure per-item limits on file size, MIME type, redownload count, and access window.
• Premium Subscription Plans — Free, Bronze ($4.99/mo), Silver ($9.99/mo), and Gold ($19.99/yr) tiers with feature gating: ad-free play, VIP game access, favorite limits, avatar upload, cover photo, Avatar Builder access, GP bonuses, and monthly GP drip credits.
• 7 Payment Gateways — PayPal, Bank Transfer, Stripe (Premium), Razorpay (Premium), Paystack (Premium), Crypto.com (Premium), and YooKassa (Premium). Plugin architecture makes adding new gateways straightforward.
• Game Boosting — Paid priority placement for games. Developers and publishers pay to feature their titles.
• SEO & Analytics — Structured data (JSON-LD), social meta tags, search query tracking, and user engagement analytics drive organic traffic and inform monetization decisions.

Advanced Multi-Format Game Import System

Building your game catalog is fast and effortless:

• Multi-Format Support — Flash SWF files (via Ruffle), and Console ROM games across all popular categories. The system automatically detects game types and applies the correct player.
• Smart Bulk Import — Advanced bulk importing automatically identifies game types, generates thumbnails, extracts ZIP files, and organizes content by category — no manual work required.
• Universal Game Detection — Intelligent detection identifies HTML5, Flash, and ROM files, automatically assigning the right player engine: EmulatorJS for console games, Ruffle for Flash, TIC-80 for fantasy console carts, and iframe embedding for HTML5.
• Upstream Catalog Integration — Included with the script. Connect to the Titan Systems game catalog with your purchase code and pull in hundreds of ready-to-play games instantly, with automatic game type mapping and thumbnail generation. See “How the Upstream Game Catalog Works” below for full details.
• Author Submission System — Accept game submissions from developers with a full review workflow (draft → submit → review → approve/reject), DMCA takedown support, and legal attestation.

How the Upstream Game Catalog Works

ARCADE ships with built-in access to the Titan Systems game catalog — an external API service operated by us so you can populate your arcade with hundreds of ready-made games from day one instead of sourcing and uploading every title yourself. Here is exactly how the feature works, and what is and isn’t included:

• The catalog is included with the script. It is available to every buyer as part of this item, at no additional cost, with no time limit and no renewal fee. It works out of the box on a fresh install.
• How you connect. After installation, you enter your CodeCanyon purchase code in Dashboard → Settings. The importer authenticates to the catalog using that code. There is no separate account to create, no third-party signup, and no API key to obtain from anyone else.
• How importing works. Dashboard → Importer displays the catalog as a searchable, filterable grid (by title, game type, category, and console type). You tick the games you want and click Import Selected. ARCADE fetches each game’s files and artwork, detects the correct player engine (Ruffle for Flash, EmulatorJS for ROMs, TIC-80 for carts, iframe for HTML5), and creates the game in your own database. Imports are idempotent — re-importing a game you already have is safely skipped. Imported games are yours to edit, re-categorize, feature, or delete from your dashboard like any other game.
• What the included catalog covers. Everything except premium HTML5 titles: Flash (SWF) games, console ROMs across all supported systems, TIC-80 cartridges, and standard HTML5 games. These import with your purchase code alone — no extra payment, subscription, or renewal of any kind.
• You can also add your own games. The catalog supplements your library, it doesn’t limit it. Upload your own HTML5 bundles as ZIP files, add Flash, ROM, and TIC-80 files directly, or accept submissions from developers through the built-in author submission workflow.
• Premium HTML5 titles are the one paid exception. A separate section of the catalog consists of premium HTML5 games. These are the only titles not covered by your purchase — they require the Premium HTML5 Games plugin, sold separately by Titan Systems at an additional cost that is not included in the price of this item. It is a one-time purchase with no recurring subscription or renewal fee. If you never buy it, the included catalog above keeps working in full, exactly as described.
• Premium HTML5 titles are remotely hosted. Premium HTML5 games are served from Titan Systems servers and embedded into your site rather than downloaded to your hosting. They therefore require a live internet connection and the continued availability of our catalog service to remain playable. Games you upload yourself, and every title from the included catalog, are stored on your own server and are unaffected by this.
• Service dependency. The catalog is a service operated by Titan Systems, independent of Envato. Envato is not a party to it and does not provide it. Uptime, availability, and catalog contents are our responsibility, not Envato’s.

Competitive Gaming & Community Features

• Tournament System — Create and manage competitive gaming tournaments with GP entry fees, prize pools, registration windows, and maximum participant caps. Real-time leaderboard updates via WebSockets keep players engaged. Automated winner payouts and refund handling.

• Arcade TV Multiplayer — Premium plugin that turns the arcade into a couch-multiplayer experience. The TV runs the game, phones join as wireless controllers via WebRTC, and up to 8 players can compete in the same room. Plan-gated per subscription tier and configurable per game.
• Social Login — Facebook and Google OAuth for frictionless registration and sign-in.

Player Identity & Customization

• Avatar Builder — Client-side layered SVG avatar composer with a CC0-catalog of hundreds of parts (backgrounds, outfits, accessories, facial features). Players create unique, high-quality avatars. Plan-gate it behind a subscription tier to drive upgrades, or offer it free to all players.
• Profile Customization — Avatar upload, cover photos, profile badges, and display frames purchasable from the shop. Four avatar modes: builder, upload, OAuth, and initials.
• Shop Items for Identity — Sell avatar parts, profile frames, badges, and cosmetic items in the GP shop. Players spend virtual currency to personalize their presence. Every item is manageable from the admin dashboard.
