What this page helps you do

  • Open a game from your Games list by clicking its cover image.

  • Open Versions for that game from the game page so you can view or manage versions.

  • Add a new version with a version number, date, and optional description.

Tips & common questions

Where do I find the Games list?
Go to Games in your team’s sidebar (e.g. …/home/[your-team]/games). Your Games list is the main page where all games in that workspace appear.

I don’t see Versions on the game page.
Your role may not include access to versions for that game. If you expect to see it, ask a teammate with admin or owner access to check your permissions.

Can I reorder versions?
The app may show versions in a fixed order (e.g. by date or version number). If you don’t see a way to drag and reorder, the order may be automatic. [Needs confirmation]

What happens if I delete a version?
Deleting a version removes it from the version list. Any content or data tied only to that version may be removed or no longer accessible. If you’re unsure, check with your team or avoid deleting until you’ve confirmed.

How do I know which version I’m viewing?
Use the version selector (e.g. v4) near the top of the game page or panel. It shows the version you’re currently viewing or editing. Change it by clicking and selecting another version from the list.
