GameCrate

Turn HTML/JavaScript and Love2D projects into proper Windows releases without dealing with the usual packaging setup.

GameCrate is a simple desktop packaging tool made for small games, tools and indie projects. It lets you take a finished project, give it a name and icon, and build it into a Windows release without having to manually configure command-line tools, packaging scripts or build environments.

GameCrate currently supports:

• HTML/JavaScript projects
• Love2D projects
• Portable Windows builds
• Windows installer builds
• Custom EXE icons
• Project naming and release settings
• itch.io publishing tools
• Project protection/encryption options
• Clean standalone output for players

HTML projects can be packaged directly from an index.html project, while Love2D projects can be built through the same simple workflow.

GameCrate also supports both portable and setup builds, so projects can be distributed as a single portable release or through a more traditional installer.
