Technical Requirements & Best Practices
Follow these simple technical benchmarks to guarantee maximum player retention and 60fps performance.
Responsive Viewport & Aspect Ratio
Games should resize smoothly to fit their container without stretching or clipping. For desktop, standard 16:9 or 4:3 ratios work best; for mobile, responsive canvas auto-scaling is strongly recommended.
Dual Input Support (Touch + Keyboard)
Support keyboard controls (WASD, Arrow Keys, Spacebar) for desktop and Chromebook users, and touch buttons or tap coordinates on mobile devices.
Fast Initial Load (< 25MB Recommended)
Compress textures, audio, and asset bundles. Avoid unnecessary 100MB downloads so players on mobile data or school Chromebooks can launch instantly.
HTTPS & Secure Embeds Only
All hosted game URLs must be served over HTTPS and allow iframe embedding (`X-Frame-Options` and `Content-Security-Policy` must not block embedding).
Developer Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the game review and publication process take?
Our curation team reviews game submissions within 24 to 48 hours. We check for responsive scaling, input responsiveness, family-friendly safety standards, and performance.
