Loading a Unity WebGL Game From Another Game: A Step-by-Step Guide

In the world of game development, creating seamless and immersive experiences is essential. For developers using Unity, building multiple WebGL games that can interact with each other can pose significant challenges. Specifically, if you have two separate Unity WebGL games, and you want one game to load from within the other as part of player interaction, you may encounter complications. This guide will guide you through the process and offer solutions to common issues you might face.

Understanding the Problem

As developers, it's not uncommon to face issues when trying to load multiple games on the same webpage. Some of the specific challenges include:

Render Pipeline Conflicts: Different settings in the lightweight render pipeline can lead to conflicts between the two games.

File Size Constraints: WebGL projects must be lightweight. Combining larger projects can lead to size limitations, making them cumbersome to load, especially on mobile platforms.

Complexity of Integration: Attempting to integrate both games into a single project can cause various technical problems.

Proposed Solution: Loading Games on the Same Page

To tackle the issue of loading two Unity WebGL games on the same webpage, follow these structured steps:

Step 1: Prepare Your Games

Make sure both WebGL games are built and their respective folders are organized.

Within each game’s build folder, you'll notice an index.html file. Keep it handy as a reference for creating your new HTML file.

Step 2: Create a New index.html File

Create a new index.html file in a new folder where both games will reside.

This new file will act as the main entry point that loads both UnityInstances.

Step 3: Modify Identifiers and File Paths

Change IDs: You need to change the IDs in your JavaScript files to ensure that the two Unity instances do not conflict with each other:

Each Unity instance should have a unique ID in the DOM.

Update File Paths: Amend the file paths in your index.html file so that the new structure can correctly locate and load your games. Ensure that each reference corresponds correctly to the game files located in their respective folders.

Step 4: Consider Other Options

If the integration becomes too complex, consider using alternatives like:

JavaScript load methods for dynamic loading of projects.

iFrames to load one game within another without significant interaction issues.

Important Considerations

Size Limitations: Unity WebGL projects usually have a minimum file size (around 10MB). Loading multiple large games may not be feasible on a single page, as a typical webpage is around 2MB. You may need to load games one at a time instead of all at once.

Performance: Monitor performance on mobile devices, as larger game sizes can hinder performance. Test your games on various platforms to ensure smooth loading.

Conclusion

Loading Unity WebGL games within each other is a challenging yet rewarding endeavor for game developers. By creating a new HTML structure, modifying identifiers, and cautiously managing resources, you can enhance the experience of players engaging with your games. While working within the limitations of WebGL projects, your creativity and technical prowess will help you deliver an engaging gaming experience.

Implementing these solutions requires attention to detail and some trial and error. Good luck, and may your games provide a seamless and interactive experience for players!
