ScreenCade

ScreenCade turns your Windows desktop wallpaper into a collection of interactive arcade games. They run behind your icons and windows, which remain accessible. You can let the AI play while you work or take control with a keyboard and mouse to pursue high scores and compete on leaderboards.

The neon collection

ScreenCade includes five games:

• Void Ball: Dodge hazards and use momentum in an arena sport built around reflexes.
• Neon Battle: Deploy units in a tactical auto-battler and watch them fight across a grid.
• Void Drifter: Use physics-based drifting to survive fast-paced combat against a relentless digital onslaught.
• Neon Maze: Navigate a modern take on arcade maze action.
• Neon Hopper: Cross geometric environments in an isometric platformer focused on precision.

Play or spectate

AI Pilot Mode lets you watch the AI play and develop its skills in each game. In Active Play, you control the action with a keyboard and mouse. Integrated Steam Leaderboards track both human and AI performance.

Desktop features

ScreenCade uses window-injection technology to run on the wallpaper layer, leaving desktop icons, files and windows accessible. It is designed for low system impact and to run in the background, including on secondary monitors. You can switch between AI and manual play with a click, and enable optional CRT scanlines.
