For your game to communicate with the ReneVerse Portal and receive ad content and assets properly, it must first connect to ReneVerse's API through the SDK. To accomplish this, you'll need to generate API Keys within the Portal and add them to the SDK in Unity.
To begin, you'll first need to add your game to your Organization within the Portal. From the Home view of the Portal, navigate to Games in the menu bar at the top of your screen, and then Click on + New Game at the top-right.
In the pop-up window, add all the relevant information for your game.
Name - The name of your game.
Description - A brief introduction to the game.
Organization Picture - A game profile picture or logo.
Blockchain - Select the blockchain of your choice to enable Web3 functionalities. You must select a blockchain network to proceed, but it will not be utilized by your Organization's Game if you do not wish to create any Ownable Assets.
Once your Game is created, click on your Game to enter it and navigate to the Settings tab. From there, navigate to the Api Credentials sub-tab on the left-hand side and click on Generate API Credentials. Here, you'll see unique identification keys that have an expiry date - these are what you will utilize to access ReneVerse's full range of services via the ReneVerse SDK.
When generating your API Credentials, you have the option to have them on Test Net, which is designed to let you test the functionalities included in ReneVerse's SDK before exchanging those API Credentials for Main Net ones when you're ready.
Note also that API Credentials have an expiration date as a security measure. Whenever your API Credentials expire, you will need to generate new API Credentials, and ReneVerse will notify you near the expiration date.
Once the API credentials are generated, please save the API Key and API Secret somewhere safe. You will not be able to retrieve these Credentials again after leaving this page. In case you lose these Credentials, you will have to generate new API Credentials.
To sum up this section on Creating Game with API Credentials, you've learned how to:
Create your own game.
Manage the settings of your game.
Generate API Credentials needed to connect your Unity game project to ReneVerse.
Next, let's go through the SDK Integration process.
