Is Steam distribution possible?

My project builds to an .exe just fine, but I’m wondering if the translation to Steam is possible. It seems that the .exe file relies on other files to run correctly- I’m assuming these can be bundled with the steam installation, but I guess I don’t know for sure. Papers, please is available on steam and it was made with openFL, so it must be possible. Just looking for an official word on it.

Have a look on https://github.com/grapefrukt/SteamWrap

awesome, that looks very helpful.
I’m worried it may be a bit out of date, but a great starting place nonetheless!

I know of at least five OpenFL games on Steam, so yes, Steam distribution is possible. As far as I know, everyone uses that extension :slight_smile:

I know I’m being paranoid, but will the next version of openfl have any backwards compatibility issues with extensions like these? from what I can tell the next version deals more with the rendering side of things, but I was just curious.

The plan is to make OpenFL “next” as compatible as possible
