Game not working in arcade

I'm about to go for the day, but something I've been trying all day is to get my game to work in the GS arcade. The title screen works, but once it starts trying to load the next scene, the purple load icon just continues indefinitely.

A search revealed that GS arcade doesn't handle tables, {and Tizen too apparently}, so I went and removed all the tables and every behavior referencing tables, replaced with non-table equivalents.

Then I wondered if the Official Cross platform controls might be causing the next scene to not load, but won't have the time to test if this is it or not until tomorrow. If anybody has a list of things that won't work in GS arcade, I'd appreciate it if you would list them. Thank you in advance.

    Most of us don't use the Arcade. It has always been pretty crappy and not worth the effort. Most of us concentrate on mobile devices.

    @FryingBaconStudios I see, thank you for the reply. I was under the impression that your game had to go through the arcade before being published anywhere else, that's what I got from out of context posts in the forums. I will try to conduct a better search on how games are outputted in game salad.

    I heard various times stuff like "you can't upload your game to the appstore, you link it so they play it on the GS arcade," but now I realize I was probably reading posts that were years old. It's a bit difficult searching on the subject as I'm not sure what keywords to use.

    @FryingBaconStudios I remember reading it on a thread outputted by the search function. I can't remember what I was searching though.

    Okay, I'll start searching reliable sources such as your website.
