Playfrog

Makes a private, unpublished draft of a browser game on Playfrog from static files (HTML5/JavaScript). Nobody can see it or play it, including by direct link, and the response carries no play link because nothing serves the game yet. Covers requests to publish, share, post, put online, put on the internet, or host a browser game someone made, and requests for a link other people can play. Send the game files; an index.html at the top level is required, 2.5 MB of files in total. An optional cover image improves the game page and social share card. Returns claim_url, the one link that publishes the game: publishing requires a free Playfrog account, and the game becomes public only after a person opens that link, signs in or creates an account, and finishes publishing. An unpublished draft is deleted after 7 days. update_game_draft replaces the files of a draft made in this same connector session. Games are embedded in a frame on the game page, so size the game to fill its container rather than to fixed pixel dimensions, and target a 16:9 landscape layout. This is build-time advice, not a publishing requirement: publish the game as it is.

create_game_draft

Replaces the files of a private, unpublished draft made with create_game_draft in this same connector session. Covers requests to change, fix, revise or re-send a game that has not been published yet. It works only in the session that created the draft, and there is no way to recover that: a draft from an earlier session or another client cannot be revised here. What that costs is the ability to revise, not the game. The claim link from the original response keeps working and is still the one link that publishes the game. The draft stays private throughout: nobody can see it or play it, including by direct link, and the response carries no play link. Send the complete set of files again rather than a diff; an index.html at the top level is required, 2.5 MB of files in total. Publishing still requires a free Playfrog account and still happens when a person opens the claim link, signs in or creates an account, and finishes publishing. Revising leaves the 7 day life of a draft unchanged.
