Simple question that I couldn't find anywhere

Unity Engine
1

Hi there,

I was hoping someone could help me out with a somewhat embarrasing issue I encountered with a Unity app I made. I’m new to coding and for a job oppertunity I wanted to make a simple app to show I was working on my skills.

I made said app, but now I want to get it to the recruiter and I’m walking into some issues. First of all when I sent the app directly via attachment to an email the mail didn’t come through cause it’s probably flagged by some kind of security measure. Then I uploaded it on wetransfer and send her a link and it worked, but she’s saying the game doesn’t open. If I ‘build’ my project to PC and Mac spec it should work on PC and Mac right?

So long story short how do I get this done so that it works cause I’m kind of looking like a tech unsavy idiot at the moment. Does the recipient need to have Unity installed to play the game? Do you have to have the project saved on the PC/Mac you’re trying to launch the game on? I can’t imagine so but this is the first time I’m trying this. Should I just try and send the entire project and kindly ask her to install Unity?

Answer would be greatly appreciated.

as far as i know, if you built it for a web player and used the html document that unity generates by default, then it should run in all popular browsers on windows and mac os (but not linux). at the very most she will need to install the unity web player which if you used the original html she will be prompted to download if no player is detected.

just upload the two files to your webspace (not a file transfer service) and give her the link for that. if she still cant use it shes probably too stupid to use a computer, and you should buy her an abacus and pat her on the head patronisingly.

but im also a noob, so there may be factors that im unaware of.
