#Steam may be tricky, especially if you’re preparing your first build on #GodotEngine. Platforms change, requirements update, and a manual upload can quickly become a headache. 😵‍
That’s why Santiago Velez Saffon from our team shared some best practices for using W4 Build in your next project 👇

Steam Best practices:

Create a dedicated Steamworks account for W4 Build deployments.

Use email codes instead of the Steam Guard mobile app..

Do not deploy directly to the default branch. Create and use a separate branch for testing.
