I ca't find out how upload a Scratch game to itch.io. Does anybody know how to do it?

from what I know, you cant.  sorry

A Scratch game would be most likely rated very badly but I think you will need to have the offline editor and export an offline editor file

Way back in the day I remember using a scratch to flash converter. Maybe it's still available?

If you're using Scratch 3.0, there's this website which converts an online project to an html file: https://sheeptester.github.io/words-go-here/scratch3-htmlifier/

What does that do? also, how do i use it?

doesn't work

I found that if you make the game on the Scratch website, there is an option on itch.io to add an external file where you can put the games URL in. This basically turns the Download button into a play game button

Heres what I did specifically on my game

1. Set 'Kind of Project' to Downloadable

2. Select 'Add External File' (it's to the right of the 'Upload File' and 'Choose From Dropbox' buttons)

3. Change type from Executable to Source Code ( I don't think this step really matters, but just in case)

4. Copy and paste the URL for the game into the 'http://' section

Hope this helps!

thanks bro!!!!

Turbowarp packager can turn it into zip files for windows and mac

First you use turbowarp packager and convert it into html file then use the file for your game. Use a thumbnail for the best downloads

That was helpful!

simple!, go to https://packager.turbowarp.org/ select the first one or the second one (for the second one you have to click file on scratch and click save to your computer)(on the first one you just have to copy the scratch project URL! (not working if you unshare)) now click load project,now if you want you can change somethings like add infinite clones,etc. (make sure is html) scroll down untill you see package,then click package to download,create a new project in itch.io,click kind of project and select html,go to upload files and add your scratch project HTML there,then you just edit your project on itch.io if you want,publish and done! (also sorry if you already knew this..)
