Push your built HTML5 game (index.html, JS, WASM\/data files) to a GitHub repository, then enable GitHub Pages in the repo Settings under a branch or via GitHub Actions. The game is served as static files at a github.io URL, ready to link or iframe into portals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Build your game to a folder of static files (index.html plus JS, WASM, and any data or asset files – what Unity WebGL, Godot web export, Construct 3 or a Phaser build produce), commit that folder to a GitHub repository, then turn on Pages in the repo’s Settings tab, either publishing from a branch or from a GitHub Actions workflow. GitHub Pages is a static site host that takes HTML, CSS and JavaScript straight from the repo and serves them; on GitHub.com your site is published at YOUR-USERNAME.github.io\/REPOSITORY<\/code>. It looks for index.html<\/code>, index.md<\/code> or README.md<\/code> as the entry file, so your game’s index file needs to sit at the root of the published folder.<\/p>\n

For testing, Playgama MCP<\/a> lets coding agents upload a build and publish a sandbox link directly from an IDE.<\/p>\n
