HOW TO POST YOUR GAME ON ITCH.IO! Sticky

Here's how to make your Pico-8 game playable on itch.io!

  • Export from pico: EXPORT FILENAME.HTML 
  • It makes FILENAME.HTML and FILENAME.JS
  • Rename  FILENAME.HTML to INDEX.HTML (cuz that is what itch.io wants) then ZIP those two files.
  • Now, in itch.io upload, choose HTML instead of Executable and upload the zip
  • Choose 750x680 display size (Thanks again, KittenM4aster!)
  • After you upload, you can change the theme of the page to match your game, like this: https://thattomhall.itch.io/myrrhs-edge
  • IMPORTANT: In the description, have a list of the CONTROLS for the game.  More people will play it!

Those are the tricky bits -- fill in the rest and you are good to go!

Czy gra musi być grywalna w sieci, bo ja chce użyć Pygame i nie umiem tego zrobić. Potrafię tylko jako exe do pobrania.

Well,  you could make an itch.io post that lets folks download your game, with a screenshot or gif of it. 

But people engage a lot more with games they can play online.  You are welcome to try whatever you want!

A i nie mam Discorda  czy mogę uczestniczyć w Jamie bez niego?

Yes, Discord is just for people that want to chat about their progress and stuff.  Not mandatory at all.
