Whether you’re a solo dev or in a small team, version control (VC) is vital.
Why you need version control:
- Track every change you make to your code and assets.
- Rollback safely when something breaks.
- Collaborate effectively with other developers, artists, or designers.
The most common solution? Git. Paired with platforms like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket, it becomes your development safety net.
Version control isn’t just for code. It’s also useful for tracking art and design assets, narrative files, and audio. It’s a must-have in any professional game development pipeline.
