How did you get the game on a CD?
I'd like to be able to send my games to friends.

if your making a windows game, you should probably put the game you made in an installer, and probably make some documentation and an AUTORUN.INI to automaticly run the installer or some other file on the cd.
if your making a linux game, you could possibly make an installer, but it is probably best to put it in an archive or a directory on the cd, the make a text file called "README" with all of the installation instructions.
i mesured exactly how big the cd case was, so i could get it right on the computer. I made the cover in open office draw(very good svg drawing program). the cd was actually one of the round buttons in the game made big. it looks pretty cool.
