Desktop packages are the easiest starting point. Mobile, console and handheld packages work too, but some need an extra installation tool or a device that is already prepared for homebrew software.

Which platform is the easiest?
The Windows ZIP is the simplest choice: extract it, open the app and add your game. Mac and Linux also have ready-to-run packages. Android uses a manually installed app, while iPhone and iPad need AltStore or Sideloadly. Console and handheld choices are intended for devices that are already prepared for homebrew software or Developer Mode.
