Add Game

There are four different methods to add a new game:

Upload Game

This is the regular way to add a game. You need to have game files and then upload them here.

Upload Game

All options are required, except for the instruction form.

  • Game files must be zipped and have an "index.html" file at the root.

  • It is recommended to use a 512x512px image size for the "thumbnail." These sizes are not required but are recommended to follow GameDistribution standards, especially if you plan to combine your game list with GameDistribution games.

You need to add a new category if it does not already exist unless you are using the "Fetch Games" option.

Remote Add

Similar to the first method (upload method), the difference is that you only need to provide a link or URL for thumbnails and the game.

This can be useful if you want to add a game from another source or if you already have games on another domain or server.

Remote Add

Fetch Games

You can import free games from game distributors. There are several options to choose from.

Each game distributor may have different rules, so please read their Publisher Program page for more information.

Fetch Games

Pick your collection, then click "Import." Wait a few seconds until the game list is loaded and shown. You don't need to worry about categories; the system will create a new category if the fetched game categories do not exist.

JSON Importer

With this option, you can bulk import games from JSON data.

JSON Importer

Sample JSON data:

[
    {
        "name": "Sample Game 1",
        "slug": "sample-game-1",
        "description": "This is a game description",
        "instructions": "Click any object to move",
        "url": "https://example.com/games/game1/",
        "thumbnail": "https://example.com/games/game1/thumbnail.jpg",
        "width": 720,
        "height": 1080,
        "category": "Arcade"
    },
    {
        "name": "Sample Game 2",
        "slug": "sample-game-2",
        "description": "This is a game description",
