We have been tightening up the spaces around the games: the leaderboard, voting, the atlas map, tags, videos, game pages, and a new wiki layer that ties more of it together.
The goal is simple: when you open Martian Games on a phone, it should feel useful, fast, and focused — even though the games themselves are built for desktop play.
A smarter phone experience
Most Martian Games titles are desktop-first. They were built for keyboard, mouse, bigger screens, and proper browser performance. We are not trying to pretend those games are touch-screen games.
Instead, on smaller screens, the site itself is doing more of the useful work. Game pages on phones now focus on what actually helps:
- quick game info
- wiki links
- tags and related games
- videos and playlists
- news
- voting
- leaderboard entry points
- richer wiki pages for priority titles
- better video cards filtered by game and tag
- compact leaderboard snapshots where they help
- a cleaner mobile news flow
- a way to follow live leaderboard movement while playing on a separate device
The playable game frame stays for screens that can handle it. On phone-sized screens, the page becomes more like a field guide — useful context, videos, and links — rather than squeezing a desktop game into a tiny viewport.
A new game wiki layer
We added the start of a Martian Games wiki. Each game can now have a clean info page covering platforms, tags, controls, trailers, playlists, release history, and major updates. It pulls from the same game data that powers the rest of the site, so facts stay in sync instead of drifting in a separate place.
Start from the wiki index, or jump in from the atlas graph when a game is selected.
Tags now connect more of the site
Tags are becoming real navigation, not just labels. Browse a topic and see matching games, news posts, and gameplay playlists — all using the same vocabulary. A multiplayer tag leads you to multiplayer games, posts about those games, and gameplay footage tied to those same titles.
The atlas gets more useful
The atlas now has tag nodes wired in. Click a game, open its wiki page, follow its videos, see its tags, browse related pages. Less static sitemap, more Martian Games discovery map.
