Netcade Alpha

A creator-first platform for indie games, videos, music, and interactive media. You keep your rights — Netcade handles hosting, ads, and payouts.

No exclusivity. Keep using Steam, itch.io, YouTube, Bandcamp, or your own site — Netcade is an extra lane for discovery and revenue.

Why Netcade exists

Built from a developer’s perspective: simple uploads, transparent revenue, and a modern experience for browser-play games, creator videos, and music — with downloadable PC titles coming soon via the Netcade client.

For creators

Keep control, earn more

Upload your games, video series, or music without surrendering rights.

  • High creator revenue share (ads, tips, future subs).
  • No exclusivity — Netcade is additive, not a replacement.
  • Clear logs of which content generated each dollar.
For players & viewers

Curated, fast, no B.S.

Short load times, in-house ads, and a clean UI tuned for games, videos, and music.

  • In-browser gameplay for HTML5 / WebGL builds.
  • Watch trailers, episodes, or music videos on branded pages.
  • Reviews, wishlists, and playtime/watchtime tracking like “big” stores.
For the future client

Unreal-powered experience

We’re building a downloadable Netcade client in Unreal Engine.

  • Steam-style library & patching for large UE/PC builds.
  • Immersive lobby UI instead of a plain launcher.
  • Shared SDK for web + client games so your analytics line up.

Who Netcade Alpha is for

Alpha is open, but we’re especially focused on creators who want to actually ship builds and help shape how Netcade works for real projects.

Indie game & interactive creators

Especially if you have:

  • HTML5 / WebGL builds from Unreal, Unity, Godot, or your own engine.
  • Prototypes or jam games you’d like to test with real players.
  • Plans for a downloadable PC build once the client lands.

Video & music creators

Creators who want a home for:

  • Devlogs, behind-the-scenes series, or long-form shows.
  • Music videos, OSTs, or full albums tied to your games or standalone.
  • Centralized pages that link your games, videos, and music together.

Feedback-first testers

People who enjoy poking at UI, flows, and edge cases.

  • Creators who don’t mind features changing week to week.
  • Players who can share honest feedback on ads, pages, and performance.
