Went ahead and tested uploading and it works fine, few things you gotta do (upload as html file, set to play in browser, set window size to a multiple of 160x120 (e.g. 640x480), but not a big deal. Here’s the file I ended up uploading (and with even a few more query parameters 🙂 ): `my-cool-game.html` ```plaintext my cool game ``` which shows up like this when uploaded [https://jwunderl.itch.io/test-game-please-ignore](https://jwunderl.itch.io/test-game-please-ignore) One more thing you might consider is using the github integration, which will 1. precompile the game for you so it loads faster 2. makes it a bit easier to customize as it can all be tracked easily / source will just be your github repo and 3. won’t load as a share link which can be easily taken out and distributed – still will be able to point to your site though [https://arcade.makecode.com/github/getting-started](https://arcade.makecode.com/github/getting-started) finally for anyone else, embedding as normal / with the simulator chrome works totally fine too, e.g you can get [https://jwunderl.itch.io/another-test-game-please-also-ignore](https://jwunderl.itch.io/another-test-game-please-also-ignore) by playing with the options on the upload page (screenshot of options below) and uploading an html file that looks like this: `my-cool-game-portrait.html` ```plaintext my cool game ``` ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/7/76f57b6e98e11de3309090a5dd9cc282f0aca4af.png) --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.makecode.com/t/getting-rid-of-the-simulator-for-itch-io/16756)._
