The Source for Java Technology Collaboration


How you distribute your Java game depends on whether you expect your audience to already have Java installed.

If you don't expect Java to be installed you need to package the JRE with your game in some way. Conventional installers are best for this. See DistributingJRE

If you expect your end user to have Java already Java WebStart is the best option. It allows both simple download to your player and an update facility to support providing patches as time goes on.
