- Write and Test Game :) If it doesn't work stand-alone, it won't work in CGL
- Write your readme and license files. Good filenames are readme.txt and license.txt
- Get a good screenshot and save it in your game folder. Consider naming it screenshot.*
- Optionally create a 64x64 thumbnail for your game. Consider naming it thumb.* or thumbnail.*
- If your game is written in python, consider looking up the module names of the dependencies you use. CGL can check for these modules and inform the user if they are available on their system or not.
- Find your entry's judging page at the competition website. Save the link for the next step.
- Get a blank gameinfo.xml file from the downloads page or the config instruction page. Fill it out with your game info, following the directions at the top.
- Download CGL and test that it displays your information the way you want it to. Tweak as necessary until everything looks right.
- Zip up your game folder - zip the single outside containing folder, not just the files inside.
