Html5 game won't run on amazon kids browser

amazon kids browser is a strict web browser in amazon kids+, and itch can go on without issues, but when i boot up a html5 game, the game won't run. And a downloadable game can not be downloaded on kids+! Itch, can you repair this issue so I can play html5 games on this site again???????

I'd imagine this has something to do with Amazon kids+, not itch.io. I'd bet that Amazon Kids+ blocks HTML5 games from running for some reason.

who would anyone  run a game on this device ?

Amazon App store has web games. Have you checked if those run?

If they don't - then the browser is probably not enabled for html games.

If they do, there might be a security setting blocking games from itch.io.

not gonna use the amazon app store, i tried a few html games outside itch and the amazon app store  anddddddddddd????

Pico-8 games worked on the lexaloffle site, as well as scratch games on the actual scratch site, even one game that has a meme character in a 3d environment: Maxwell the cat world.

How about the sonic momentum fan game? It worked earlier but now doesn't🙁.

if anything mobile supported on cool math games works, I'm gonna nut. 

answer? It did!

what about stuff on neal.fun? Yep!

Let's seeeee...... What about the intro creators by kessel labs? The intro creators all worked but the edited intro for game of thrones doesn't work??????? Stupid! But the music in the last of us & stranger things ones also don't work? also stupid!

Let's seeee.... Google snake mods & elgoog work fine.

The google doodles also work fine on the google doodle page.

dino runner which is based on the offline chrome dino game works.

Google's quick! Draw! Works.

And the github import of doodle cricket.

Even turbowarp runs fine!

Damn this reply is gettin long! How about pokemon showdown & mario kart pc? Ofc!

and again..... Itch? Website works but not html games🙁.


Now sonic momentum and itch should step it up and fix their support on the Amazon kids browser.






So i guess it's just a security issue, amazon, don't act stupid and bring back support for itch html!

Did Pico-8 games from itch work?
How about any of my games? The older ones should work.
It could be that webgl based games are causing an error, and that browser handles the errors differently.
It also probably does not allow web workers, so some newer games would not work, it may also be using ES5 since it's based on  the older fire browser.

Pico-8 games don't work on itch, only coolmath games and the lexaloffle site


Edit: non of your non pico-8 games worked on the browser, so i guess it uses ES5
