KBVE Arcade

Browser games we built ourselves — blackjack, Klondike with monsters, a WebGL action-RPG demo, an isometric WebGPU prototype, and an endless runner. Plus a Ruffle integration in the oven for Flash classics.

  • 5 Live games
  • WASM Phaser · Bevy · R3F
  • Free Enjoy the run!

If you used to play Flash games on portals like Miniclip, Newgrounds, or Kongregate in the late 2000s — that’s the vibe we’re after. A single hub with a deep library, plus a few first-party titles you can’t get anywhere else.

Coming soon

Section titled “Coming soon”

We’re working on a Ruffle integration so the arcade can host classic Flash (.swf) games in-browser via the WASM emulator. No browser plugin, no Adobe runtime — Ruffle just plays the file. Once the integration is stable we’ll seed the library with a few fan-favorite classics and grow from there.

Ruffle Flash player

COMING SOON

WASM-based Flash player so we can bring SWF-era games back to life inside the arcade. Tracking integration, save-state, and controller mapping before we open the catalog.

  • Ruffle
  • WASM
  • Flash
On the roadmap

More first-party titles

COMING SOON

KBVE Studio keeps shipping. New titles drop here first — track the project changelog for what's cooking next.

Mobile-friendly

Every game we ship plays on touch — drag, tap, and gesture support are first-class. Rotate your phone to landscape and the same canvas you play on desktop fits the screen.

Open source

Most of the arcade lives in the public KBVE monorepo. PRs and bug reports welcome — see github.com/KBVE/kbve.

How it’s built

Section titled “How it’s built”

The arcade is part of kbve.com, a static Astro Starlight site. Each game embeds via a client:only React island so the heavy runtime (Phaser, Bevy/WASM, R3F) is only fetched when you actually open the game’s page — the rest of the site stays light.

Controls cheatsheet

Section titled “Controls cheatsheet”

A few common patterns across the arcade:

  • Drag with the mouse or finger to move cards / units.
  • Tap / double-click a card to send it home (e.g. solitaire foundation).
  • Click stock / deck to draw.
  • Most pages support a Theater button (focus mode) and a Fullscreen button up top.
  • Keyboard shortcuts where applicable: N = new game, Z = undo.
