Wavedash
Use this skill to get a game from local project to tested, uploaded, and publishable on Wavedash. Official docs are canonical; this skill routes the agent to the right docs and highlights traps agents commonly miss.
Always do this
- Identify whether the user is starting from an existing game or from zero. If no game exists yet, create a small browser-playable game first.
- Identify the engine/framework, build command, output directory, and requested Wavedash features.
- Read the relevant reference file before changing code or giving detailed instructions. Do not invent SDK methods, event names, constants, CLI flags, pricing rules, or content-policy exceptions.
- Prefer the CLI for local testing and scripted upload/publish workflows.
- Publish only when the user explicitly asks to make a build live.
- Use
WAVEDASH_TOKENand--json --no-color --no-update-checkin CI, cloud-agent, or other headless automation contexts.
Routing
| User task | Read first |
|---|---|
| Start a new game from zero, scaffold a browser game, choose a framework | references/project-start.md |
| Install CLI, authenticate, initialize, test locally, upload, publish | references/cli.md |
| Add or fix SDK calls, player identity, load lifecycle, events | references/sdk.md |
| Add multiplayer, lobbies, networking | references/sdk.md |
| Add achievements, stats, leaderboards, cloud saves, UGC | references/sdk.md |
| Prepare store page, metadata, pricing, content policy, launch checklist | references/publishing.md |
| Fix launch-quality issues like shader stutter, Escape key, audio, memory | references/game-quality.md |
| Determine engine-specific build/export steps | references/engines.md |
| Need all docs URLs or raw Markdown links | references/docs-map.md |
Critical rules
- Every Wavedash game must call
Wavedash.init()or the engine binding equivalent; otherwise the game can stay hidden behind the loading screen. - A new game must produce static browser files with an
index.html; Wavedash is not a server runtime for native binaries or backend services. - Test with
wavedash devwhen possible, then smoke-test the uploaded build on Wavedash after upload. - Do not use Escape as the only pause/menu key; browsers reserve it for fullscreen and pointer-lock exit.
- Warm up shaders/materials before gameplay to avoid first-use stutter.
- Do not present crypto, NFT, real-money gambling, malware, hateful, sexual, or otherwise disallowed content as acceptable for Wavedash.
- Never commit API keys, tokens, private user data, or generated credentials.
