Integrations

Cookies & Local Storage

Important Note

To use this feature, you must use the 'Local Storage' extension on Turbowarp or Penguinmod. Access it at: extensions.turbowarp.org/local-storage.js

You can use 'cookies' (data stored in-memory) to integrate your game with Lantech Settings. If the user has previously downloaded your game, they can access your 'settings' in the 'in app integrations' in the Settings panel.

Implementation Steps:

  1. 1. Set the project namespace to lantech:games
  2. 2. Store values as 1 or 0 for checkbox compatibility
  3. 3. Avoid checking values in forever loops - use event-based checks instead

Monetization & Advertising

Currently, there is no way to monetize your game on Lantech. We also don't allow custom adverts in your game. However, you can create advertisements for your game within Lantech Games when you upload your game.
