Add Game To My Site?

Please Forgive me if this is in the wrong topic.

I have created a game using the Game Maker, and was wondering how abouts I would go to add it to my site, so that they can play it online, and not have to download it?

What format is the game in?

Unfortunately, there is no way to run .exe file as an online game on our servers.

Is there a way to change to format?

I also still have the .mak version of it.

I don't think its possible to change the format to have it run on the Internet. Most games on the Internet are flash based, which is harder to make but runs great on the Internet.

Game maker is more of a computer game maker, not Internet game maker.

I don't know much about GameMaker, but I believe it's not meant to make games for online usage. You could upload it in a zip folder and allow the visitors to download it - be careful of the file size though, GM files seem to be really big.

You could search Google for a GameMaker -> Flash converter or something but I doubt you'll find anything.

What about trying G-Flash,
this program converts game maker files (not exe) into flash files including html files.

Link removed due to its just a site full of advertisement. Would you mind checking the location again. Thank you
