Steam is a digital distribution platform for PC gaming that offers game developers access to a vast global audience, revenue opportunities through various pricing models, integration with Steamworks for feature-rich gameplay experiences, community engagement tools, early access and beta testing options, promotional opportunities, protection against piracy, analytics and data insights, and a revenue-sharing model. It's a comprehensive ecosystem that can significantly enhance a game's reach and success.
Publishing a game made with Hology is like publishing any HTML5 game to Steam. You first need to package it into an executable application that can be installed on a PC. A popular choice for this is Electron.js. Please refer to the Electron.js docs for how to package your application.
After you have your game packaged, you need to integrate Steamworks. You can read more about how that can be done in this guide.
