Hello,

So I currently have a packaged game ready to go and I want to upload it to itch.io. I want the user to be able to download the game like they would any other game. How do I get my project into a form where this is possible? All I have so far is the packaged version but it is not possible to download the game. I believe I need an installer for the game, but I’m not sure. Any help is appreciated.

Hi @DORMINX!

So for itch.io you can simply compress (zip) the file and upload that. However, an installer might be a better idea if it’s somewhat large. You can find many online by searching “installer creator” if you want to go that route :slight_smile: Good luck!

Thank you! I actually ended up figuring it out. Seems to always go that way as soon as I make post lol. I just had to upload the full windows zip not just the exe file. It’s only 653MB so I prolly don’t need an installer.
