The WebGL version of games don't work on the app. 

Has Itch.io any plan to correct this in the futur?

First off, please make sure you have the latest version of the app: you can download v25 from here: https://itch.io/app

If that doesn't fix it, can you add more details? Like:

  • Which OS are you running the app on? (Windows, Linux, macOS)
  • Which games aren't working for you?

(WebGL games  are definitely supposed to work fine in the app.)

Just to prove that I'm not straight up lying, here's a WebGL game running in the app:


It may not be itch.io app, Unity webgl has always caused problems for people with low end computers. It could also be the developer web game that might not be working or something that causing with itch.io app system.

The latest version of Itch.io is installed.

My OS is Windows10 familly 64x. And I tryed with a fresh windows installation too (same problem). All drivers are up to date.
ALL webGL games doesn't work for me.

My specs : i7 920 / 12go Ram / GTX 1060 / Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7

This is how your exemple is show in my application : 


Ah, I see the confusion. You actually need to install it! (big red button, bottom-right)

ok I was thinking it don't need installation (as on the others browsers)  little bit disapointing, the first quality of webGL is that you don't need installation. You click, you play. But now I understand, thank you for the answer.
