Sorry for making another thread in such a short time but I don't know an awnser to a big question I have.
Is there any way, and if there is, how can I put up DBP games online.
Is there some variation of a SWF exporter or another way I don't know of?

Again, sorry about making these newbie questions, but I'm only curious because there is this online competition for games, and the games are put up on a website.

Thanks in advance.

I've heard of some sort of packing utility that lets you embed executables into webpages, and there have been a couple threads around about them. I'm sure if you searched enough you'd find one.

But... I doubt you could enter a game like that into a competition, because anyone else who wanted to play it would probably have to download a client-side thing for it to work.

For example, Kongregate.com only recently started allowing games made with Unity to be uploaded - to play them requires a client-side plugin. They probably wouldn't let another game in that requires yet another client-side plugin.

yomomma, do not post new questions in other people's threads - especially when you are asking about FPSC and this is a DBPro board.

CompCamp, you cannot really run DBP games from a website because the client needs to have DirectX installed.

I know TGC has the code snippets and the WIP forums. It would be fine to upload your game onto one of them.

It probably would be nice if the TGC offered a forum where users could upload there games to showcase though. Maybe this type of forum could only allow completed games or a complete beta test version of a game until it's completed.

You should look in the program announcements section.
