# Register a Game

> Create your game entry and get credentials

## Overview

Every game on SusaPlay has a game entry that holds metadata, build history, economy config, and credentials. You register once — then all SDK and API calls reference that game.

## Steps

### 1. Open the Developer Portal

Go to [dev.susaplay.com](https://dev.susaplay.com) → **Register Game**.

### 2. Fill in game metadata

| Field        | Notes                                                             |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Name         | Public-facing title shown in the developer catalog                |
| Description  | Summary for reviewers — mention gameplay loop and target audience |
| Platforms    | Select every platform you plan to support (WebGL, iOS, Android)   |
| Genre        | Used for internal filtering — pick the closest fit                |
| Distribution | `Public` or `B2B` — determines who can access the game shell      |

### 3. Copy the game key

After registration, a game key is generated:

```text theme={null}
gk_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```

<Warning>
  Copy this immediately. It is shown only once. If you lose it, generate a new key from Settings → API Keys.
</Warning>

### 4. Add thumbnail and screenshots

Before requesting release review:

* Upload a thumbnail — JPEG, PNG, or WebP, under 5 MB
* Add up to 3 screenshots showing real gameplay, same formats and size limit

SVG is rejected. To add a fourth screenshot you have to delete an existing one first.
