We love video games

We love to play them. We love the rich potential of the medium. We love games that explore new territory, take risks, and give us experiences we've never had before. We love the creative thrill of bringing pixels to life. We love finding games that surprise us. And we love sharing the games we love with the world.

We are Invisible Arcade

Each of our events feature a hand-picked selection of playable games. In addition, each game is performed as a "set" on a stage with a large screen. Every performer has a chance to share what they love about the game with the crowd. This combination of performance and play is at the heart of Invisible Arcade.

We connect developers and players

To players, the game development process is mysterious. To developers, witnessing people play their games can be illuminating. Invisible Arcade mixes players and developers together, allowing them to socialize, converse, and learn from each other.

We are inclusive

Invisible Arcade is a safe space for all. People of any shape, size, color, orientation, gender, abled-ness, and expression are welcome. We have a zero tolerance policy for bigoted, homophobic, racist, or otherwise unpleasant behavior/attitudes.

Why Patreon?

We want to expand! We've shown a lot of amazing games* from talented developers. The performance format of our events have been very well-received. We believe we have something special, and we want to do more with it. With your support, we can:

• show more games, more often
• feature developers from all over the world
• invest in demo machine hardware
• purchase live-streaming equipment
• commission developers to create games specifically for our performance events.

We are asking for your support on Patreon to allow us to grow Invisible Arcade organically, without corporate sponsors or advertisements.

Thank you!
