To be honest it might be a bit expensive if you are alone and making games as hobbist. We might write something about version control soon to help you set up a safe and stress free work environment with Unity and Git, but today we are speaking about UCB (Unity Cloud Build). All our game code sources are versioned with GitLab service.
Here at Million Victories, we use Git for versioning. We usually set up our code with a version control tool, such as GIT or SVN with CI, as the CI server will watch any code changes pushed and will start the builds, test and release process.Īfter this quick introduction about CI, what about explaining how we managed to efficiently create a smooth workflow for video games made by Unity? We use CI to integrate our features as frequently as possible, and to improve software quality by fixing our bugs early and often. Once that’s done, automated builds will start with tests on a seperate server. What is continuous integration?Ĭontinuous Integration, or CI, is the process of merging all developer codes that are then reviewed and validated to a central repository. However when you consider the amount of time it’ll save, it is definitely worth the price of 9$/month. That’s the birth of a brilliant new service that is a big time saver for all of us! Although it is now a premium service, so you have to pay. Unity acquired Tsugi Builder in 2014, and then rebranded it Unity Cloud Build. Everything needed to be done manually: building for one target, switching to another one and building again to another platform, sharing your build to your team through ftp or other file sharing service, and so on…Īs we call it in the business – a real pain. In the early stages of Unity, it was very difficult to have a smooth workflow with a small team. Unit圓D is a extremely useful game engine that spares you lot of efforts when you develop your game for multiple platforms.
