Discord launched a new Embedded Game SDK that will allow to ship webgames for Mobile/Desktop/Web via their platform.

discord.com/build
discord.com/developers/docs/developer-tools/embedded-app-sdk
It looks like a big deal for webgames as new way to monetize and distribute them.

Several other JS frameworks or engines already shipped or are working on Templates/Integrations for it. (Raylib/Phaser)

Would Scirra be up to take a look into it and potentially provide us ways to ship to this platform ? :)

Heh, I saw that on Twitter yesterday and tagged them there too. I think it would be pretty neat. I suppose that should also be posted to the suggestion github.

The problem we have with integrating third-party services is there are literally hundreds of things out there that could potentially be integrated, and we already get far, far more feature requests than we could possibly act on. We just don't have time to jump in to every third-party service that appears.

This is the very reason we have an addon SDK, which is ideal for integrating third-party services. We know we can't do everything ourselves, and so we have an SDK so someone else can do it without waiting for us.

Regarding the SDK integration itself yeah I agree it shouldn't be too hard to do for me or an other 3rd party dev.

I was mostly thinking about guidelines on how to make a Construct 3 HTML export to work properly as an Embedded Game in Discord as it looked intimidating at first to be honest.
