BOILERPLATE
Short
Zerkzee Pixel Arcade is a free-to-play pixel arcade at pixelgames.app. Its games are short, endless and built for the chase: beat your own score, then the daily, weekly and all-time boards. One avatar follows you into every cabinet. Every ranked score is replayed and verified on the server, and nothing sold in the arcade ever raises a score. It plays in any modern browser and installs as an app on phones and desktops.
Long
Zerkzee Pixel Arcade is a free-to-play pixel arcade at pixelgames.app, made by Zerkzee, an independent games studio. The arcade opens with five games: the DriveBot Racing trio (Nitro Rush, Lane Dodge and Lights Out), Sky Hopper and Snack Stack, with a new cabinet planned every one to two days once the first five are stable. Each game is short, endless and scored; boards run daily, weekly, monthly and all-time, and a Daily Challenge gives everyone in the world the same seeded run with one attempt. Players build one pixel avatar that appears in every game. Fairness is built in: every ranked run is a deterministic, seeded replay that the server verifies before it reaches a board, and the only things for sale are cosmetics. The arcade is designed to be safe for players of all ages: no free-text chat (emotes only), no blood, no gambling-style mechanics, kid-safe defaults for younger players and guest play that collects nothing personal. New games pass through the Beta Lab, where testers play early, report bugs with one button and keep a board of their own, before they reach the main hall. The arcade runs in any modern browser and installs as an app on phones, tablets and desktops.

- Use the files as supplied. Do not recolour, outline, add shadows, stretch or redraw any mark. The blue top strokes stay blue.
- Keep the clear space baked into every file; do not crop into it. Minimum wordmark width on screen: 120 px; below that use the ZE icon.
- The arcade is "Zerkzee Pixel Arcade". Write pixelgames.app as a web address, never as a name or a logo. Social handles are addresses too: write them as @handle next to the platform name, not as a name for the arcade.
- The ZERKZEE GAMES lockup is for store listings, splash screens and merchandise only.
- Screenshots are pre-release and may change; please say so if you publish them before launch.
- Cast art may be shown in coverage of the arcade. Please do not use it as a mascot for anything else.
