Game Dev Arcade (itch)

v0.1 Out Now! Come play the first arcade game of the series: Mars Madness.

Game Dev Arcade is a collection of basic indie games from a variety of genres ranging from FPS shooters to Platformers. They all feature a high-scores local leaderboard.

The source code will be available so you can see how they were developed! Play the games yourself, and then check out all the nitty gritty details that go in to making simple video games.

Mars Madness

You are dropped on Mars with one objective - to kill all aliens! In this top down shooter, run across the Mars landscape eliminating all threats. How long can you survive??

Crystal Corridors

A platformer where you control a Marble and try to collect all of the crystals before making it to the end of the level! Don't move too fast, or you may just fall off the edge.

Marble Maze

Rotate a maze, and try to get the Marble into the goal as fast as you can! Some quick movement may help you find certain shortcuts 😉.

These games were developed by Valthazier from Bulwark Creative. They were made to help show how simple video games are created, and most games in the collection have a mini-video series that goes through the step by step process of creating the game. Full source code of the games can also be downloaded to view in the Unreal Engine 5.0 Editor.
