Every game starts as a draft — playable by you (and your collaborators), invisible to everyone else. Publishing makes it public.

​
Draft vs published

​
Publishing

  1. Open your game’s settings from the Studio (or from My Games).
  2. Under Preferences → Visibility, switch the game to Published.
  3. Your game’s store page goes live at its play link — share it anywhere.
You can flip back to draft any time; the play link stops resolving for the public while unpublished.

​
Before you publish — the checklist

  • Store page — poster, screenshots, tagline, description. A bare store page buries an otherwise great game. See Storefront.
  • Custom URL — claim a readable link slug in Game information.
  • Category & tags — how the marketplace files and recommends your game.
  • Remix setting — decide whether others can fork it (Remixing).
  • Monetization — free, paid, or pay-what-you-want (Game monetization).
  • Pin to profile — showcase the game at the top of your public creator profile.
  • Watermark & loading logo — paid plans can remove Tesana branding and set a custom loading logo, in Appearance settings.
  • Beyond Tesana — publishing here and exporting for self-hosting or stores aren’t either/or; most creators do both.
