Hello! I am very new to this, and i was wondering if there is anyway to save/download my story to my computer without publishing it. ( I am on windows using the browser version of quest)

I was also wondering if you can download other people's games off of this website. Thanks in advance!

If you go to "my games" (follow the "Create" link at the top of this page) there is a 'download' button next to each game.

If you want to create a .quest file, you will need to click "publish". This combines your game with the core libraries so it is ready to play. Yoj still have the option of not sharing it with anyone else.

Yes. Click the "download" button on a game's page (in the column at the right)
