    This is my new arcade. I tried to target a specific genre of gaming, so there are not too many games.

    What do you think of:
    Ad Placement?
    Color Theme?
    Header?

    I will value everyone's opinions. Thank you!

    The site looks nice and clean. Even though I know what the site is about, others might not. You might want to consider placing a small description box on the load page and a home button for when you increase the depth of the site. Otherwise good job.

    The design is not bad but you should have some text on the page explaining
    what the site is about not only for your visitors but also for seo purposes
    good luck with the site.

    I kinda like the site. I played a few games :)

    everyone above me said what I would have said, just try to blow some dust off of it and make sure each image has room to breathe.

    Hi
    I happy to say that you made such a nice site which is most easy to nevigate.
    User can easily understand that where he is.
    but you should made your design some more attractive. other wise every thing is fine.
    So i give your site 8/10.

    The games are absolutely fantastic man. Addictive indeed. So, it had been hard to cut the browser.

    The layout is nice, easy to navigate, easy to understand and all. Only one minor negative aspect is, the page gets quite boring in the long run. PLace some glitzy ads from Adsense Skyscraper and other widgetbucks or something like that.

    All in all, a nice sit to share.

    thanks for the feedback guys. i need to fix the "back to main page" link. i am also planning to add some more banner exchanges so that might make things a little more exciting. Right now I am just trying to work on the traffic aspect.

    thanks. i realized that the arcade niche is extremely oversaturated so i tried to find a sub-niche that was slightly smaller. there are already many tower defence sites, but i think with some luck i can slowly work my way in.

    I think it is better to place ads on left side of your site and color theme is really perfect...
