Publishing Your Game

Once you have your game built exactly how you like it and are ready to share it with the rest of the world, click the Share button in the top-right corner. This will share your project with the Popfly community and make it so that you can embed your game in a blog, share it on Facebook, or even make it available as a Windows Vista Sidebar Gadget. After your project is shared, a pop-up window (Figure 2-78) will appear that includes a link to your game, the embed code for your game, a link to download the game as a Sidebar Gadget, a link to build the game as a Facebook application, and links to advertise your game on Digg, Reddit, or in email.
