Cody’s Shack Games is a self-deployable browser game portal built on top of 3kh0 Lite. It ships as a collection of plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files — no build system, no server-side runtime, no dependencies to install. Every game runs entirely in the browser, the game list is driven by a single JSON config file, and the whole thing can be dropped onto any static file host and served immediately. The project was originally created by Cody as a clean, fast alternative to ad-heavy game aggregators, and grew to include website proxies, a movie streaming page, and a tab-cloaking utility before being superseded by the newer Cody’s Shack organisation.
This repository is archived and no longer actively maintained. It has been merged into the newer Cody’s Shack project. For the current, supported version visit https://github.com/codys-shack. The legacy source discussed on this page lives at https://github.com/theinfamouscoder5/codys-shack-games.

Key features

  • 147+ embedded games — all game assets are bundled inside the projects/ folder and served directly from your host; no third-party game CDN required.
  • No ads, no user accounts — there are no ad networks and no login or registration system. Note that the original index.html does include Firebase Analytics; if you prefer a fully tracking-free deployment, remove the Firebase <script> block before hosting.
  • Tab cloaker — the Settings page (misc.html) lets users change the browser tab title and favicon on the fly via localStorage, making the site appear to be something else at a glance.
  • Website proxies — the Websites section (apps.html) embeds popular sites (YouTube, Discord, Spotify, Reddit, and more) inside iframe proxy pages so they can be accessed from restricted networks.
  • Movie streaming — the Movies page provides an embedded streaming interface alongside the game and app sections.
  • Fully client-side — every page is static HTML. Game discovery happens entirely in the browser: projects.html fetches config/games.json with the fetch() API and renders clickable tiles dynamically with vanilla JavaScript.

How the game list works

When a visitor navigates to projects.html, the page fires a fetch() call to config/games.json. The JSON array is iterated and each entry is turned into an anchor element containing a styled tile with a thumbnail image and a title. A live search input filters the rendered tiles by title string without any page reload. The same pattern is used by apps.html reading from config/apps.json. 
[
  {
    "link": "projects/2048/index.html",
    "imgSrc": "projects/2048/thumb.png",
    "title": "2048"
  }
]
Each entry needs exactly three fields: link (path to the game’s index.html), imgSrc (path to its thumbnail), and title (display name shown on the tile).

Site sections

Games

Over 147 browser games bundled in the projects/ directory — from classics like 2048, Cookie Clicker, and Flappy Bird to larger titles like Eaglercraft, Super Mario 64, and Snow Rider 3D. Games are discovered at runtime from config/games.json and displayed as searchable tiles on projects.html.

Websites

Proxy wrappers for popular sites including YouTube, Discord, Spotify, TikTok, Reddit, Google, Twitch, and Cool Math Games. Each entry in config/apps.json maps to a lightweight iframe page under the apps/ directory, allowing access from networks that block those domains directly.

Movies

An embedded movie streaming interface accessible from the top navigation bar. Like the rest of the site it requires no server-side code — the page loads entirely from static files served alongside the game and app sections.

Settings

The Settings page (misc.html) exposes the tab-cloaking feature. Users can set a custom browser tab title and favicon URL; values are written to localStorage and applied on every page load by js/main.js, making the site look like an unrelated page to a casual observer.
