FAQ

Common questions about publishing and monetizing games on Buncha Games.

Publishing basics

  • What kind of game can I publish? A browser-playable static web export that runs inside the Buncha Games play wrapper.
  • Do I upload my source project? No. Upload the exported web build only.
  • What does the ZIP need? index.html at the ZIP root plus the runtime files your game needs.
  • Can I update a live game? Yes. Upload a new private build, test it in Sandbox, then submit the update for review.
  • Who owns my game? You do, assuming you have the rights to submit and monetize it.

Builds and engines

  • Can I upload Unity WebGL? Yes. Export a Unity WebGL build and ZIP the exported folder contents.
  • Can I upload Godot Web? Yes. Export a web build and ZIP the exported HTML5 output.
  • Can I upload Phaser, Three.js, Construct, GDevelop, Defold, PlayCanvas, PixiJS, RPG Maker, Twine, Bitsy, or PICO-8 HTML games? Yes, if the export is browser-ready and static.
  • Can I use a backend? Yes, after the required external services or domains are disclosed and approved.
  • Can I load libraries from CDNs? No. Bundle game engines and libraries into the uploaded build.

SDK and analytics

  • Is the SDK required for deployment? No. Add it when you want deeper Buncha Games features inside your game.
  • Why add the SDK? It unlocks player identity/display names, in-game analytics, Buncha Credits display, wallet/IAP requests, entitlement validation, approved ad callbacks, and sandbox testing.
  • Can I define custom analytics events? Yes. Use the SDK to send concise custom events for important gameplay moments.
  • Can my game run outside Buncha Games? It should. SDK calls must fail soft when the Buncha Games wrapper is absent.

Monetization

  • Can I monetize without the SDK? Yes, through Platform Monetization such as Buncha Games-owned tips and opt-in ad surfaces.
  • Can I monetize inside my game? Yes, through SDK-powered In-Game Monetization for approved wallet/IAP, Buncha Credits, entitlements, and ad flows.
  • Can I add my own payment or ad provider? No. Use Buncha Games-approved monetization flows only.
  • Can I test purchases and ads before launch? Yes. Approved builds can use sandbox wallet, IAP, entitlement, and ad test mode.
  • Do sandbox transactions create revenue or real ownership? No. Sandbox tests are fake and non-payable.

Review and support

  • Why does Buncha Games review games? To protect players, developers, rights holders, and platform trust.
  • What can block review? Broken builds, wrong ZIP shape, missing media, undisclosed external services, unsafe content, direct ads/payments, remote scripts, or rights/policy concerns.
  • Where do I manage games? Use the private Developer Dashboard after login.
  • How do I get help? Use the Buncha Games Discord (https://discord.gg/T8pugQRkmn) or support@bunchagames.com.
