Getting started

What is Mable?

Mable helps the next generation of game creators make games, publish them, and see real people play them. Use Studio to turn an idea into a game, shape its art, animation, sound and controls, then share it with a game link. Mable is also a place to discover and play creator-made games in the browser, without installing an app. Public discovery depends on the game’s visibility and review status.

Where can I play Mable?

  • iPhone and iPad: App Store
  • Android: Google Play
  • Any browser: mable.gg

Do I need an account?

You can start playing browser games without an account. Sign in to make games and use account features. Saving progress depends on the game and device; signing in does not by itself guarantee that every game supports saving or synchronizes progress across devices.

What is the difference between Mable, Mable Studio and Mable Tools?

Mable is where you discover and play games. Mable Studio is where you make, edit and publish them. Mable Tools provides game asset generators. For coding-agent workflows, start with the Mable CLI. The Mable player app and Mable Studio creator app are separate apps.

Making games

How do I make a game?

Open Mable Studio at studio.mable.gg and start with your idea in your own words. You do not write code.

On your phone, use the Mable Studio app: App Store for iPhone, Google Play for Android. It is the same account as the web, so your games and credits carry over.

The first version lands closer when you are specific about two things: what the player does, and how they win or lose. From there, keep shaping it in the editor: generate characters, animated sprites, effects, sound, and music, tune the difficulty and controls, and publish when it is ready.

My game did not come out the way I wanted. What now?

Keep shaping the game in the same Studio conversation. Describe a specific change to the controls, difficulty or gameplay, then play the result and check it. If something appears broken, contact Mable Support with the game link and what happened.

How do I edit a game I already published?

Open your game in Studio and use Edit game, then Update when the new version is ready. Check the published game link after updating.

Older-generator games cannot currently be edited directly in Studio. Eligible CLI-published games can be imported from My Games when the interface offers that option. See older games and imports.

My older game has no Edit button. Why?

Games made with the older generator are currently read-only and cannot be edited directly in Studio. To develop the idea further, start a new game in Studio.

Eligible games published through the CLI have a separate import option in My Games. Use the import button when it is available for your own game; this does not mean every older game can be imported.

The preview still shows the old version after I edited it.

Reload the preview and check whether you are viewing the draft in Studio or the published game link. Editing a draft and updating the published version are different steps. A stale preview alone does not prove that publishing failed. If the expected version still does not appear, contact Mable Support with the game link, the message shown and roughly when you edited or published it.

My game is stuck generating, or generation keeps failing.

Reload Studio and check Mable Status. A disconnected page alone does not establish that generation failed. If the issue continues, contact Mable Support with the game link, message and approximate time. For charges, see failed generation and billing.

I get an error when I try to publish or update my game.

Check Mable Status. If publishing or updating still fails, contact Mable Support with the game link, exact message and approximate time. Support can investigate the report; there is no fixed resolution time or guarantee of compensation.

A generation failed. Was I charged for it?

A generation request confirmed as failed by the system should not be charged for that failed request; an already settled charge can be corrected. Dissatisfaction with the result, a disconnected page or an old preview alone does not establish a confirmed failure.

For a billing discrepancy, contact Mable Support privately with the game link and approximate request time so the team can check it. This is not confirmation that a particular refund has completed.

Why does it say I am out of credits?

Making games and generating assets can use Mable credits. Check your signed-in Studio balance, usage history and current upgrade options for the allowance, renewal date and price that apply to your account. For CLI work, use mable credits to check the signed-in account and balance. Do not rely on an old screenshot or FAQ for a current price or credit allowance. For an unexpected charge, contact Mable Support.

Can I use Mable with Codex, Claude Code or Cursor?

Yes. The Mable CLI supports coding-agent workflows for game assets and browser-game publishing. Read the current setup guide and agent skill for supported commands, sign-in, platform requirements and publishing checks. Sign in through Mable’s browser authorization flow; never paste passwords or tokens into a chat. Asset generation uses Mable credits. An agent should publish or make a game public only with your authorization.

Both mobile and desktop games can qualify for public distribution after platform compatibility checks, server playtesting and content review. Desktop games appear in desktop discovery, not mobile discovery; open their links on a computer with the required controls. See the current agent skill for platform guidance.

Publishing and getting played

Where does my game go after I publish it?

Publishing gives your game a share link. A link-only game and a game approved for public discovery are different: check the visibility and review status in the tool you used to publish. For CLI publishing, follow the current publishing guide and explicitly choose public distribution when that is what you want. Publishing does not guarantee a place in Featured or a particular number of players.

How do I get my game featured?

Use Get Featured on your game in Studio to request review by the team. A weekly account allowance and a cooldown for the same game both apply. Check Studio for remaining requests and when you can apply again. Featuring is separate from the former cash grading program and does not guarantee earnings.

How long does a Get Featured review take?

Get Featured requests are reviewed by the team. Check the game’s status in Studio. There is no fixed review deadline; for questions about a pending request, contact Mable Support with the game link and when you applied.

Where is the grading system? I cannot find it any more.

The former cash grading program has ended. Get Featured in Studio is a separate review process for wider discovery, not a cash grading or payout application. For a past payment question, contact Mable Support.

Where do I find my Mable profile link?

Open your own profile in Mable and copy its link using the address bar or an available share control. Include that link when contacting Mable Support about your profile or games.

Where can I see and reply to comments on my game?

  • In Mable Studio: go to My Games and click the comment count on your game. It opens every comment on that game, and you can reply there.
  • On your game page: open your game on mable.gg and tap Comments. You can read and reply there too.

Comments in the Studio menu shows your newest comments, likes and saves. It is not the full list for each game, so use the comment count to see them all.

Creator Program and payouts

Is the Creator Program still paying out?

The cash Creator Program has ended. Games are no longer graded for cash. If you believe a payment from the former program is still missing, contact Mable Support privately so the team can check the claim. Publishing or being featured does not guarantee cash earnings.

I never received a payout from before. What do I do?

Contact Mable Support privately with the account email, profile or game link and approximate period of the missing payment from the former program. Support needs to check the claim before confirming any amount or payment. There is no fixed resolution time. Do not post payment details in public channels.

Account, safety and privacy

I cannot sign in.

Use the form on mable.gg/support with the email address on your account and what you see on screen — a screenshot helps.

Never send us your password. We will not ask for it.

My creator badge or the edit button disappeared.

Older games made with the retired generator are read-only and do not have an Edit game button. See older games. If a badge or editing access unexpectedly disappears on another game, contact Mable Support with the game link and when it changed. The team needs to check the cause before confirming a bug or account issue.

How do I report unsafe, stolen or abusive content?

Use the form on mable.gg/support and pick Safety, or write to [email protected]. Include a link to the game and a short description of the problem.

We look at every safety report. Child safety standards and reporting are on mable.gg/child-safety.

What happens to my data, and how do I delete my account?

Read the Privacy Policy for data handling and retention. To request deletion, follow the current account deletion instructions, including the Studio app’s Account → Delete account option, or email [email protected] from your registered address. Some records may be retained for billing, security or legal reasons, and published games or public content may remain in anonymized form. Deletion does not guarantee that every published game disappears.

Where can an AI assistant read the Mable FAQ?

Use the Markdown FAQ for readable text or the JSON FAQ for stable question IDs, answer links, verification dates and auto-reply permissions. Both come from the same source as this page. The site index links to product and developer guides. Cite the individual answer link, check its verification date, and send account-specific, payment or policy questions to support when automatic replies are not allowed.
