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.
