ButterStack Documentation

Streamline your game development pipeline with automated builds, asset management, and team collaboration.

The 5-Stage Asset Lineage Pipeline

ButterStack tracks your game assets through five distinct stages, providing complete visibility from task creation to production deployment.

┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐
│ Stage 1 │──▶│ Stage 2 │──▶│ Stage 3 │──▶│ Stage 4 │──▶│ Stage 5 │
│  Task   │   │ Version │   │  CI/CD  │   │  Game   │   │ Deploy  │
└─────────┘   └─────────┘   └─────────┘   └─────────┘   └─────────┘
   Jira        Perforce       Jenkins       Unreal        Steam
   Linear      Git            GitHub        Unity         Epic
   Trello      Diversion      Actions                     Play Store

Observe, Don’t Interfere - ButterStack connects to your existing tools via webhooks and APIs without modifying your workflow.
