Zip your HTML5 build with index.html at the root, create a new project on itch.io, set kind of project to HTML, upload the zip, check ‘This file will be played in the browser’, set the embed frame size to match your canvas, and save. Test the embed before publishing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Export your game as a self-contained HTML5 build (index.html, JS, assets, no absolute paths), zip the folder with index.html at the root, then on itch.io create a new project, set ‘Kind of project’ to HTML, upload the zip, and tick ‘This file will be played in the browser’. Set the embed width and height to match your canvas resolution, choose whether the frame is fixed or scales, then save and test the embed link before publishing.<\/p>\n

itch.io hosts HTML5 games in an iframe on its own domain, which is convenient but ties the game to that page.<\/p>\n

Where else can the same build go?<\/h2>\n
