Use a Game Icon

Although it's not required to upload a game icon to create a game, it certainly helps! While editing your game, your game icon will be displayed in the left navigation bar to indicate the game you've selected, and ensure you're making the edits to the correct game.

Once you've completed the form, click Create Game.

🚧

Changing blockchain

Once a game is created, you cannot edit the chain at a later date. In order to select a different chain, you will need to create a new game.

You've just created your first game on the blockchain!
