I've seen a few Pico-8 games added to Itch.io as HTML games (basically all of these: https://itch.io/games/tag-pico-8) , and I'd love to know how to do that. If anyone can help me figure it out, I'd really appreciate it!


Here's link to Celeste's cart:
https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/widget.php?pid=11724&cat=7
pid seems to be cart's number (correct me if I'm wrong here) and cat I dunno, but it seems to need to be there and have that value.


Celeste uses an iframe (similar to embedding youtube videos):
<iframe width="580" height="580" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="" src="https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/widget.php?pid=11724&cat=7">
It's still a work in progress, but feel free to use the current version if you like. It doesn't yet have options to control stuff like screen scale and volume control / reset & pause button etc.
If you can wait a bit longer, there will also be a stand-alone html5 player (for 0.1.3?) that can be used on sites like itch.io and Kongregate.


Ah, an iframe, of course! That's really simple and smart! Thanks!
@darkhog I imagine with a bit of hacking you could maybe figure out how to do that, but I think it'd ultimately be better to wait for the stand-alone html5 player! I'm looking forward to that!
