Copy project folder and zip it?
Use version control software? Git? Mercurial? Perforce? SVN?

I usually just copy the whole game folder.
It’s helpful if you want to test newer versions of Godot and are rightly afraid that it might make your projects unusable in older version when opened there again. Always copy your project, especially if it’s that simple. :wink:
