Ayubjon Building games for Yandex Games (Я.Игры)
Step 0 — Fetch the CURRENT rules first (do not skip)
Yandex changes its requirements, moderation rules, and SDK. The notes in this skill are a starting checklist, not the source of truth. Before writing game code, open and read the live docs:
- Docs hub (RU): https://yandex.ru/dev/games/doc/dg/
- Docs hub (EN): https://yandex.com/dev/games/doc/en/
Read the current requirements, moderation rules, and SDK reference.
references/rules-and-requirements.md lists exactly what to check and the deep links.
When to use this skill
Building a game for Yandex Games, integrating its SDK, or publishing/passing moderation — in a browser/HTML5 engine, Godot, or Unity.
Universal workflow
- Fetch current rules (Step 0).
- Pick the engine → open the matching reference below.
- Build the game as HTML5 (browser) or export to Web/WebGL (Godot/Unity).
- Integrate the SDK — at minimum
YaGames.init()+LoadingAPI.ready(); then cloud saves / leaderboards / ads / purchases as needed. For HTML5 you can drop inassets/ya-sdk.js. - Test as a draft in the developer console.
- Package the ZIP (
index.htmlin the root) and upload. - Pass moderation — run the rejection-reasons checklist first.
