How was this game made?

quill18 started ProjectPorcupine as a tutorial on Unity. This project has since expanded to a community wide project. quill18's video series Unity Base-Building Game Tutorial shows how the game started, and will continue.

How can I contribute?

• Read the CONTRIBUTING.md file for a guide.
  • For a video tutorial see here.
• Take a look at Standards and Conventions for some tips on how we do things.

What if I don't know how to program?

Don't worry! There's plenty of other jobs to do, such as:

• Game Art
• Maintaining the wiki
• Reporting Bugs
• Fixing text files
• Sound and Music
• Writing flavour text
• And so on...
