Effective immediately all game pages on itch.io are now a lot easier to use on mobile browsers! This change also comes with a handful of other features making it easier to use the site when on a phone or small screen device.
The game pages are now responsive, meaning they’ll render correctly on devices of any size. As a game page creator, you don’t need to do anything! All of your content will be scaled to fit the device.
In addition to the game pages, the purchase, donate, login, and register pages have all been upgraded to also work well at various resolutions. (This is in addition to the homepage which got some responsive updates a few weeks back)
Additionally, if someone browses to your Unity game on a device that doesn’t support the plugin they will be given a button to save the game for later by adding it to a collection. The collection dialog has also been updated to work on various screen sizes.
If someone purchases your game through their mobile browser, the purchase referrer column in your purchases table will reflect that.
Enjoy!
