TGB on a website?

Is it possible to have a TGB game play on an HTML website, kind of like how flash and Java work?

I'm not sure about TGB. There was a plugin developed some time ago (TGE 1.3 I think), but it needed the download of most of the framework, and it was platform and browser dependent.

You could possibly use igloader.com.

I used the TGE web plugin made by Neil and merge it with TGB.

I would love for there to be a way to to create browser games with TGB. I think a plugin similar to flash would be a good idea.

I am currently looking into igloader as well as Unity. If anyone knows of a simple way to do this (that a newby could use) let me know.

This is something Garage Games should certainly look into. YoYo Games' Game Maker now has a plugin that launches it in a browser, in fact it has become the standard way to play Game Maker games now. It would be great if Instant Action supported TGB games, or if there was a TGB plugin for IE and Firefox to automatically launch the game from a broswer.

It would be nice.

It would be nice if the YoYo games one worked consistently, too. They're working on it, though. Some of the contest entrants were rather concerned though.

Browser plugins are finicky things.

It would be nice indeed.
