[Coco] Playing games from floppies

[rietveld rietveld]

I'm not sure we are on the same page but the easiest way is to buy a SDC then copy games from that to a physical disk.
If you are like me then I do understand that playing from a disk  is more enjoyable.  Kind of like guys who prefer vinyl over digital

Rich kids bought (and still buying :) game cartridges,
poor kids like me bought floppies. That's why I have
over 100 floppies with coco stuff on them, but no games at all.
Can you tell me how can I  put games onto my floppies?
Thanks anyway.
