Changes to Game Merging and Live Game

While Game merging has been an integral part of LootLocker since it's inception, over time it's proven error prone and hard to use.

We've made the hard decision to deprecate the feature and hide it for all new games. If you have an existing game that uses the feature it will continue to work as before, until we can replace it with a better solution.

This also means new games only have 1 environment available.

So how will you be able to run a development and live version of your game?

The recommended approach is to create 2 games in LootLocker, one for development and one for live. While this solution is not perfect, our experience is that it works better than the game merging feature.

We know this is not ideal, but we believe it is the best solution for the time being. We are working on a better solution that will allow you to have multiple environments for your game, and we will keep you updated on our progress.
