How to Build and Test your Unity Game

So you have finally finished your game enough to make a test build to give out to others to test your game, in this article you will find out how easy it is to get a build of your game.

Go to File>Build Settings or use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+B

From here add in all the scenes you want to be added and select what platform you are wanting to build to, I will be doing PC.

Next, click on the Player Settings… button in the bottom left

Here you can change a lot of settings for your game. This is where you can add in a splash screen for all those that have added to your game, the icon for the game, even what resolution the game starts at. If you do want the game to run in Fullscreen, remember to add in some functionality to be able to close the game.

After changing all the settings you want/need, close that window and you should be back on the Build Settings Window. Click on the build button in the bottom right of that window, Build and run will do the same but run the game after it’s built. This should ask you where you want the game to build. Make a new folder to keep it separate from the project files, and click Select Folder.

After a little time has passed it will open up a new window with your game, all ready to play.

From here you can run your game using the, in my case, 2D space Shooter V3.exe
