selgkr Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Hello -- I've finished developing a game on my local device, and everything works locally. How do I proceed from here to host an actual website with the game? Can anyone please share some resources on how to build from here? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tempneff Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 1. Select a hosting service 2. Select a domain name 3. Pay for a hosting plan and the domain name 4. upload your folders and files to the public_html folder 5. Play your game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msanatan Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Hey @selgkr, luckily (or unluckily) you got a lot of options to share your Phaser game. I had games on my website https://msanatan.com, which is hosted by GitHub Pages. It's simple as I use git extensively and free. I also created an account with https://itch.io, a great place to discover and upload indie games. However, any web hosting service will do. Netifly, S3 and maybe others host static websites for free. But I'd recommend itch.io because you'll be with a larger community of game developers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selgkr Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Thanks for your replies. My game is for multiplayer using Socket.io, so I can't just use GitHub Pages or Netifly or such. I've (kind of) gotten it running using digital ocean for my static files and Amazon EC3 for my server. msanatan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msanatan Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Sounds good @selgkr. I once did an experiment with Phaser + socket.io, I think I hosted it on Heroku as it was pretty simple to update via Git. I primarily use AWS nowadays, mostly ECS. It can get expensive ?.
