Collaboration

When you create a game, you become an admin. As an admin, you can add other Rune users as team members with different roles: Playtester, Developer or Admin. Use npx rune-games-cli@latest update-members in your terminal to update the team for your game:

  • List existing members
  • Invite new members using their Rune tag
  • Change role of existing member
  • Remove existing member

Invited members receive an email invitation that they accept to become a member of the game team.

Team Roles

Each game has its own set of Playtesters / Developers / Admins so you can easily collaborate with different people.

All game members can playtest game versions in draft / in review in the Rune app (see section below). Only Developers and Admins can publish new versions of the game. Note that a game can have multiple Admins.

Playtesting in Rune App

As member of the team who made the game, you can play your game in the Rune app before it's published to everyone. Just create a room in the app and select your game in the list. You can also invite others who are not on your team to playtest with you. They can't see your game in the list, but can play the game with you once you've selected it.

Once your game has been published, everyone in the Rune community will have access to the latest active version of the game. You're likely continuously improving your game and anyone on your team will have access to the latest uploaded draft / in review version. In this way, you are able to playtest the actual multiplayer game experience of new versions before they're released!
