Just a friendly reminder to back up your game. Like right now, do it.

CloseThat's a pretty important reminder. I'm gonna do just that, right now.
Did you remind us of that because something bad happened to your project and you forgot to do a backup?

Pfft. I don't have time for that.
My computer has a surge protector, a UPS, and unlimited ammo. I'm good.

Every week. Make regular backups every week at the very least.

Keep your game in a dropbox folder. Infinite backup power.
...except that when someone shares folders with you it counts against YOUR CAP too now, and then suddenly their 15gbs of files overwhelms your free Dropbox size limit >:|
I am using OneDrive right now, because I have 115gb (for some reason?) and it is natively incorporated into Windows 10. Also, the browser interface for OneDrive isn't blocked at work and is pretty slick. Also, has a built in Microsoft office tools.
Google Drive is also handy.

If you have to manually make backups, you're asking for trouble, I cringe every time I see one of those "luckily I had a backup from two months ago!!" posts. dropbox, onedrive, gdrive, hd sync etc are all so much more foolproof.
