Buildsmith is your free one-click deployment tool for indie games. Connect your GitHub repository and Buildsmith packages your latest build, uploads it to the cloud, and notifies your team automatically—no more emailing zip files. Built with Electron, it handles updates, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud storage so you can focus on development.
Deploy your game straight from your GitHub repository with a single click. Buildsmith packages your latest build and uploads it for free, so your testers always have the most recent version.
The launcher uses GitHub Actions and releases to automatically update clients to the latest version upon launch, ensuring all users have the latest features and security updates.
Games can be added and updated through a database backend, with changes reflecting immediately in the launcher. Game cards are automatically created in the UI, complete with download buttons based on unique game IDs.
Support for continuous integration and delivery with GitHub Actions for Unity projects. Automatically builds and uploads game files to Oracle Cloud buckets, facilitating seamless updates and distribution.
While the launcher integrates seamlessly with Oracle Cloud for storing game builds, it also allows manual uploads to any cloud storage service, offering flexibility for different deployment needs.
The UI is designed to be highly customizable, allowing developers to tailor the launcher to match their branding and aesthetic preferences.
Buildsmith records how long each game is played, giving you insight into tester engagement and helping prioritize updates.
