Build first. Upload second. Submit scores with a simple API.
EmilyGaming uses a simple API for global scores. Download the starter template before you upload, wire in your game slug, then submit the final score when a run ends.
🧩
Start with template
Download the starter ZIP and plug in your slug.
📦
Upload ZIP
Include index.html and all required assets.
🏆
Submit final score
Use the API once at game over.
Start with the template before uploading your game.
Starter Template
This is the recommended starting point for new EmilyGaming integrations. Enter your game slug and the template will be configured for you automatically before download.
Use before upload
Slug = your game URL name. Example: modern-defender-fx
Best use
- • Download this before building your game
- • Replace the sample code with your real gameplay
- • Keep the score submit call at real game over

Global Score API
Use the same route for score submission and leaderboard loading.
No SDK required
Submit score
await fetch('/api/games/YOUR-GAME-SLUG/scores', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + localStorage.getItem('emilygamingUserToken')
},
credentials: 'include',
body: JSON.stringify({
score: finalScore
})
});
Get leaderboard
const res = await fetch('/api/games/YOUR-GAME-SLUG/scores', {
credentials: 'include'
});
const scores = await res.json();
Submit only once
let submitted = false;
async function endGame(score) {
if (submitted) return;
submitted = true;
await submitScore(score);
}
Game ZIP Requirements
Package your game like a clean browser app so EmilyGaming can extract and serve it correctly.
Required
- • A main index.html file
- • All CSS, JS, image, and audio assets inside the ZIP
- • A browser-playable HTML game
Recommended
- • Keep every path relative
- • Include a thumbnail image
- • Add instructions and controls
Example ZIP structure
my-game.zip ├── index.html ├── css/ │ └── style.css ├── js/ │ └── game.js ├── assets/ │ ├── images/ │ └── audio/ └── README.txt
Best Practices
Do
- • Start from the template before upload
- • Submit score only when the round is really over
- • Use integers for scores
- • Keep file paths relative
- • Test while logged in
Avoid
- • Downloading the template after upload
- • Posting a score every frame
- • Using floating point score values
- • Depending on absolute file paths
- • Submitting multiple times per run
