publishing a build

publishing is the final step in the release pipeline. once published, your build is live on spawnd and players can access it immediately from your game's page.

how to publish

1. go to your game's builds screen
2. find a build with approved status
3. open the actions menu
4. click publish

what happens after publishing

the build becomes available to players right away through your game page and embeds.

important rules

only approved builds can be published, and only one build per game can be live at a time. publishing a new one automatically moves the previous build back to approved. note that archived builds can't be published; unarchive them first if needed.

replacing a published build

to update your live game with a newer version:

1. upload and test the new build
2. request a review and wait for approval
3. publish the new build – the previous one will be moved back to approved automatically
