• Should not break compatibility, but use 0.4.x if you don't need the new features

Version 0.4.0

⚠️ This update breaks backwards compatibility with previous firmware versions. You will need v0.1.6 Beta of the 32Blit firmware or greater to use these new fields.

This update adds URL and Category fields for better discoverability of games/apps and their source.

An additional multi-value field has been added to supply a list of file extensions that a game supports- as of firmware v0.1.6 beta 32blit's launcher is capable of finding the right (installed)application to launch a specific file.

• Breaks metadata compatibility with previous versions!
• Add URL field for GitHub URL
• Add Category field to categorise games/apps
• Add file associations field to identify supported filetypes

Version 0.3.2

• Allow use of user-specified serial port if VID/PID are empty
• Support handling multiple sets of options in CMake tool

Version 0.3.1

• Fixed "32blit game.blit" to save (to SD) instead of flash again
