Hi everyone :slight_smile:

I can’t publish my game and can’t find the reason. There are no bad words or anything.
What else could I check?

Thanks,
Rob

Sorry about that! We’ve gone ahead and restored the project. Thanks for letting us know.

Hi. Thanks for the answer. But I still can’t share the project. :frowning:

Can You tell me why I can’t share/publish my game?

Hi fusselkaefer,

I dug into the project a bit more closely and saw that there were, in fact, some bad words, but only in the main.py python file. It looks like you’re not coding in python anymore though, so I would recommend simply removing that file from the project. To do so:

  1. Create a backup of your game using the “Save as Image” functionality you’ve already used
  2. Now switch to Javascript (not Python)
  3. Expand the explorer on the left:
    image
  4. You should see a main.py file in there with a trash icon. Click the trash icon to remove the file.

If you do that, can you then share the game again?

Thanks a lot :slight_smile: . It works for now. This case is interesting, because I never coded in Javascript or Python.

Glad to hear it’s working!

Interesting that the file was there even though you hadn’t coded in python before. Did you start by editing an existing project? If that was the case, it’s possible it came from whoever authored the project before you did.
