Why when i go download a game it says swf i mean what does it mean and do you have to have a 60 x 60. please help is there any wepsite download sugestions
What are you downloading? If you're talking about downloading your own game, then go here and ask around. If you're talking about armor games, I'm pretty sure you don't have to download anything.
swf basically means a flash file, in which to contain files which has "flash" inside, such as flash games.
A 60x60 is a "thumbnail" of the game's image, a first-hand look on what the game looks like. If you want to get technical, 60x60 is 60 pixels across and 60 pixels down.
However, your question is very vague, so I don't know what exactly you're asking for.
If you are wondering how to download someone else's game to play, you just basically click the download button, choose where to put the file in (such as the desktop or a flash folder), wait for it to finish downloading, and then play!
If you are wondering how to upload your own game unto AG, then you have to follow this process. I'll follow you through it.
1) Type in the name of the game
2) Type in the game description (what the game is about)
3) Type in all the controls in the game (mouse button fires, arrow keys move...) 4) Choose the category for the game (Adventure, Shooting, Strategy..)
5) Choose a thumbnail of the game. Like I said, it is a picture of the game and it's basically what the game looks like. All the pictures of the games you see before you actually play it have those small pictures, and it's asking you to upload yours. All you have to do is browse your files (by clicking browse) and find the small picture of the game. Make the picture in a 60x60 format. This can be made by making a screenshot of a game and uploading it to photobucket or imageshack and reducing the size to "60x60.
6) Choose the file that has the actual game contents inside. The entirety of your game should be uploaded here. Make sure the game is playable before you upload your file here.
7) If you have any walkthroughs (a guide on how to progress through your game) on your game, submit them here. Text walkthrough is a guide in text, and flash walkthrough is obviously flash-based. The common flash walkthrough is a video, such as youtube.
8) If you would describe what your game is based on, it would go here. "RPG, Tower Defense, Fighting, Physics" are all good tags.
Hopefully this answers your questions, Skorch. If not, please come tell me, because your first post was kinda vague to begin with. Can you explain more, if it didn't? :-/
Yes, I believe he meant upload, not download. A swf is a Flash file to be played with Flash Player, and the 60x60 image is the thumbnail/icon for the game that is seen for every game on this site before you play it.
