Junkworld is Now Available on Apple Arcade!
By Matt Jones, Character Artist · 4 min read
Scrap day has arrived: Junkworld is live on Apple Arcade, and our porting team got it there with touch-first controls, seamless iCloud saves and zero ads or upsells — the Arcade way.
Rebuilt for thumbs, not mice
The original PC build assumed a mouse with opinions. For Arcade we redesigned the entire input layer: context-aware tap zones, a radial build menu and haptics that confirm every placement. If you can play it one-handed on a swaying bus, it ships.
A porting checklist worth stealing
- Profile on the oldest supported device first, not the newest
- Move every tutorial prompt into the world — overlay text dies in sunlight
- Test cloud saves by rage-quitting mid-level, repeatedly, on purpose
Porting your own hit to a new platform? That is exactly what our multiplatform team does every month.
