I've attempted to use it but it doesn't function properly with Arcade, application always quit immediately on opening. If you know if someone else has come across the same issue I'd love to give it another shot I'm just not incredibly familiar with pyinstaller.
Of course to replace the package1 and 2 or add more --collect-data. It just depends on what Arcade's dependencies are.
These are also some useful command things:
-w = no console -i <path/to/ICON.ICO> = icon -F = one file -D = Creates one folder containing the .exe and other files (not compatible with -F) -n <NAME> = Creates the .exe with the name set
--add-data "file.oxe;." ex. --add-data "default.png;." = For one file (can add multiple) --add-data "*.oxe;." = all oxe files

You can use pyinstaller to turn the game into a .exe

The fix I found awhile back (Took me awhile to find it) was to add the packages. I use the windows console. My command looks like:
pyinstaller --collect-data <package1> --collect-data <package2> myProgram.py
Of course to replace the package1 and 2 or add more --collect-data. It just depends on what Arcade's dependencies are.

Ill give that a shot, thanks
