Running Visionaire game in browser

  • #1, by gabartsFriday, 19. May 2017, 14:42 8 years ago
    I know it can sound weird but this is what I'm looking for, since I started with AGS. Now you can export for mobiles and pc, manage to distribute your games on STEAM, GoG and so on... but what if I would make a free game to play directly in browser. I've made a couple of online games in flash with actionscript, for example an hidden game made with Visionaire would be cool to play in browser. Is this possible or it's just impossible to convert the application to Java or flash thing?

    You are free to export it as a HTML5 game. This way you can play it inside your modern browser.

    Is HTML5  free for commercial use too ?

    its free. 
    html5 is just the so called "markup language" in which a website is built. The export will include the files you have to upload on your website or play locally in your browser. 

    actually this site you see right now is written in html5. 

    its the current version of html

    Can you actually sell browser based games?

    html5 itself is free. its like c++ or any other language to write your games/websites in. 
    Of course people like webdesigners do sell their coded websites with html/php/css. The same maybe goes also for games which use html5 as base.

    There are also a lot of apps for mobile devices which are made in html5 and put into an "app wrapper" which only runs it like a browser would also do...

    The only thing I could personally think of was selling the rights of an html5 game you created to a publisher or a site like facebook. Short of wrapping your game into a mobile app instead - if the engine you used doesn't have support for ios/android export.

    If I export a game in HTML5 I can play it in Linux? How is the way to install it or set the directories on a local drive or on a PHP server? I missed a (working) Linux player very much...
