🐟 Homemade & hand-wound

Wind-up worlds,
built by Louis.

Small games, made from scratch — no big studio, just an idea, a lot of tinkering, and a wind-up key. Step into the arcade and give one a spin.

The Arcade

Every cabinet here is a real, playable game. New ones get added as Louis builds them.

New Swimmy Fish, a purple wind-up clockwork fish character

Swimmy Fish

A little clockwork fish, out for a swim. Dodge the swaying seaweed, keep your gears turning, and see how far you can wind your way through the reef.

New Dandy, a smiling rainbow flower, driving a pink go-kart

Dandy Kart

Pick from 12 racers on karts or motorbikes and tear round eight tracks, from spooky Boogie Woogie and the Big Top circus to slippery Yellow Snow Cone. Grab plungers and running shoes, drift for boosts, win the Grand Prix, or race a friend online.

Windows: if a blue warning appears, click More info → Run anyway. Handhelds: copy the zip's contents into your SD card's ports folder (R36S and other PortMaster devices).

Mystery Slot

There's always room for one more machine in the arcade. This spot is saved for whatever Louis dreams up next.
