Our Goal: Turn Your Game into a Web Game

In this lesson, you will use a special tool to change your Pygame game into files that can be played on the internet. This tool will make new files like HTML, JS, and WASM. These files are what web browsers use to show games.

Get Ready to Convert

Before you change your game into web files, let's make sure your project is ready.

  1. Make sure your Pygame game files (like main.py) are in the right folder.
  2. Make sure you have the pygame-web tool installed on your computer. You will use this tool to change your game.

Right now, you should not have index.html or other web files in your project. This means you are ready to convert your game!

Convert Your Game

Now, you will use the pygame-web tool to change your game into web files. This tool will create new files that web browsers can understand.

  1. Open your terminal (or command prompt).

  2. Go to the main folder of your Pygame project.

  3. Type this command and press Enter:

    pygame-web export
    

This command will make new files like index.html, .js files, and .wasm files in your project folder.

Check Your Work Again

You've converted your game! Now, let's check to make sure the new web files are there.

Look in your project folder. You should see these new files:

āœ… index.html āœ… Some .js files (like game.js) āœ… Some .wasm files (like game.wasm)

If you see these files, your game is ready for the web!
