This news made my day! Glad it's working for you.

IT WORKED!! i had to delete and redownload and start over but it worked thank you!!

Okay, so this advice comes from a very wise game developer (of Grizzly Grove, great game): "Download Joiplay and Rar (to open .rar files on android) from the play store. Using your browser of choice, download the latest version of the game (I used chrome) Once you download the game, Open Rar app and open the downloaded .rar game file. Extract and take note of the folder you extracted to. Get back to joiplay, click on the "+" icon on the corner of the screen. Give a name to the game and tell it where is the HTML file (is on the folder you extracted on the prior step). Optional: you can find an icon for the game on media/general folder And that's it, the game can be started on joiplay." I hope this works!

ok thank you!

I'll reach out to some people and get back to you.

yes, the images work on the itch.io browser, but not when i download it

voirleprince

Okay, that helps. I haven't tested on Android but I've heard that people have played the game on Android, in the past. Did you happen to play Week 1 on the web browser through itch.io?

Officialbolin

yes, i didnt rename it. if it helps, im doing this on android, not on windows

Okay. We'll figure it out. People have different experiences working with HTML games, so I might explain things that are obvious to you. But just to be safe: Does your folder look like [new folder] > [img folder] + [HTML file]? If you happened to rename the img folder (or move any of its files around) the HTML file won't be able to reach it.

ive tried both of them, first making a new folder for tnm and placing them both there, then putting the html inside of the image folder, neither worked

voirleprince

Sorry for the difficulty. This can happen for a few reasons. I typically run into this when I forget to unzip the images, or when the HTML file can't find the img folder — is the HTML file and img folder next to each other inside of a new folder (instead of, say, the HTML file being inside of the img folder)?

Officialbolin

the images i mean arent loading

Officialbolin

I put the image folder and the html all into one folder but theyre still not loading /:
