Publishing and players
Installing a game
Add a published game to a home screen or a desktop.
Every published game carries an app manifest, so it can be installed like any other app. It opens full screen, with the game's name and icon, from the home screen or the desktop.
On a phone or tablet
| Browser | How |
|---|---|
| Safari on iPhone and iPad | Open the play page, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. |
| Chrome on Android | Open the play page, tap the menu, then Add to Home screen or Install app. |
On a desktop
| Browser | How |
|---|---|
| Chrome and Edge | Open the play page and press the install icon at the right of the address bar, or choose Install from the menu. |
| Safari on Mac | Open the play page, then choose File, Add to Dock. |
| Firefox | Bookmark the play page. Firefox does not install web apps on desktop. |
What players get
- The game launches full screen with no browser chrome.
- Updates arrive automatically. Each time the game is opened it loads the version you have published.
- A published game still needs a connection to load, so it is not yet playable offline.
Export targets on the project Settings page show what is available: the web play address and the installable app are live; a desktop wrapper is coming.
