Utility & Publishing
Publishing a Project
Publish builds your project and gives it a link anyone can open and play. Until you publish, the project exists only in the editor.
Publishing the First Version
- Open Publish from the editor.
- Set the Version number, or keep the one offered.
- Write a short note about the release. This is optional.
- Click Publish.
Publishing Changes
Once a project is live, the popup shows the current version, the new version, and when it was last updated. The button becomes Publish Changes and replaces the live build for everyone who opens the project, so players get the new version on their next visit.
Raise the version number for each release and use the notes field to record what changed. It becomes the history of the project.
After Publishing
- Play - open the published project the way a player sees it.
- Copy link - copy the shareable link.
- QR code - show a QR code for the link, with Download QR to save it as an image. Useful for events, workshops, and presentations.
- Export - open the export options for the published build.
Release to Community
Release submits the project for listing on the Discover page, where other creators can find it. A dot on the button marks a published project that has not been released to the community yet.
Public Project
The Public project switch decides who can open the link. Public means anyone with the link can visit and play. Off means only the people you have given view or edit access to can open it.
