FastArcade.com - Not just another Gamescript clone

skyraider · 06-06-2005, 04:34 PM

Hey,

I run www.FastArcade.com, the 300,000th Gamescript clone. Or is it? When I bought the site a couple months ago, I removed all of the crappy games and only kept the stock games that got lots of plays. I constantly download the latest and greatest free flash games. I resized the games for maximum play space (that's why the center block and the right column are so close) and got a custom design and logo. As far as accessibility, how does the site work on your browser (it's fine here on Firefox and IE)? Also, how do you like the games? They are the most important part of an arcade site, not the design, IMO - do you agree?

Thanks a bunch

Hey,

The site looks nice but, in my personal opinion, it's a little to.. bright! but it looks good tho. You have some nice games in there. Looks good on Firefox. How much traffic do you get ?

Yes, too much orange! The design is so nice though. Good luck with it!

I like the new look. The header looks very nice!

The tumbnails take too long to load!

I don't think it is TOO bright, and I am a webmaster myself. Maybe a tad, but not enough that you would lose visitors over. Last night I played Interactive Buddy for about an hour! Excellent site, Bookmarked it myself.

need some change in colour scheme. nice site.

Niek · 06-07-2005, 04:12 AM

hello
,
can use some changemets.
I don't like the background of you're site and table.
Just plain white in the table is fine
for the background of the website , maybe use you're logo diagonal as pattern.
But before you do that , change the logo , don't really like it.
Maybe make a contest here.

skyraider · 06-07-2005, 08:08 AM

Thanks for the suggestions.

I changed the text color to CC6600. It looks better, but is too dark, IMO. What do you guys think?

Thanks

GJ · 06-08-2005, 02:00 PM

It looks good but the background is in the wrong place on my screen!

suppau · 06-08-2005, 10:47 PM

The games are not bad. Quite addictive :P

I changed the text color for the game descriptions, game plays and some other stuff.

Just organized the menu so it's less cluttered. I also added Indiana Jones, which is quite fun

Additionally, I set up my vB on the site.

Loads very very slow in the first place, I don't like the colors, don't like the banner and anything to do with the layout. The games are quality though!
