Patchwork not in full list of available licenses
The game Patchwork by Uwe Rosenberg is already implemented in BGA. But on the licenses page after pressing the button for showing all games, Patchwork is not there. Shouldn't it be there? How do we add it there? Are there other missing games on that page?
I'm new to BGA Studio.
Thinking about Riftbound TCG Integration

Points relevent to BGA:
App must NOT have skill-based match making or player-facing rank
App must use official riftbound assets (via Riot's API)
App must allow Riot RSO (Single Sign-on)
Point 1
I have read in the faq that games can disable Arena and also turn off ...
Cubix - Looking for a developer
Hello !
I’m the author of Cubix, an abstract 2-player strategy game, and I’m looking for a developer interested in adapting it for BGA.
Each player had 6 cubes on a 6×6 board. Each cube has 6 different faces, and cubes move by rolling on one or two squares in any direction.
Goal: Bring one of your cubes to the opposite row with its red square face upward.
Capture rule: When two cubes show ...
Adding accessibility features to game?
Hi everyone! I’m currently helping develop a game on BGA Studio, and I realized that (like most games on the platform it seems) it isn’t possible to navigate or play using the keyboard alone (e.g. you can't tab through elements on the page). I’d really like to make sure the game I’m working on is accessible to players who use screen readers, can’t use a mouse, or rely on other assistive ...

Local copy of released Reversi doesn't run
I requested read only access to the Reversi from the Released Studio Projects page (and verified that all the files are, in fact, in my sftp dir) so I can look at, run, and learn from the code. However, I cannot actually run the game without an error (long error pasted below).
So, to see if it was some step I'm missing or if it's the Reversi game, I tried the same thing with Hearts (requested ...
Express Stop not there and other oddities with tutorial
I'm new to the platform and am trying to go through the Reversi tutorial. Going fine, but I feel like I'm missing some things because:
1) From my game management page when I hit "Play" a new browser tab is opened (fine). Then, when I create a table and launch my game using Express Start (training mode, 1p), BOTH of the tabs become the game (same URL). Also, there is no Express Stop option in ...
