Title: How do import games?
Post by: andrewmosier on March 23, 2026, 05:28:14 AM
Hello,
I've recently been working on a Thumby game. I exported it successfully, but when I tried to import it back, it only showed the message "Binary File"—and it covered the entire code editor area.

How can I recover my game and get it loaded back into the code editor?

Also, the exported game file looked strange: its name/type just showed "file" with nothing special about it, which seemed odd.

You need to change the file type on your computer. Your file doesn't have the .py tag, just add .py at the end. So change (Your file name here) to (Your file name here).py. Good luck with your game!
