5.0.146

✨ New features

Authenticate players in your game by allowing them to login and submit their scores (experimental)

This allows you to give a way to your players to register and login. It works anywhere (Android, iOS, desktop, web games) and is super easy to use:

• Use the action to display an authentication banner at the top of your game.
• Or use the action to display the authentication window directly, for example when your player clicks on a "Connect" button.
  
• You can check when your player is logged with conditions.
• Use the new action to submit a leaderboard entry for the connected player.

Learn everything about authenticating your players and submit scores on this wiki page.

This is a early preview, new features related to players will be available in the future! As usual, your feedback is welcome on the forum!

A big thank you to @fannieyan for the ground work on this feature, early prototypes and implementation.

✨ New features

Cloud projects: save and load projects directly on your GDevelop account

In order to make the life easier for users of the web-app, you can now save your project online and retrieve it from any device.

• Projects saved online can be edited from your phone, your computer, your tablet or any device able to run editor.gdevelop.io
• In the near future, you'll be able to load these projects in the desktop version of GDevelop too.
• For now, you can't import your own resources in the web-app but this will be also available in the near future, so you can create entire games on editor.gdevelop.io and edit them from anywhere.

To reduce risks of abuse and reduce server costs, you can store up to 10 cloud projects in your account. Subscribers can store up to 50 projects (Indie plan) or 100 projects (Pro plan).

You can now subscribe to GDevelop premium accounts with PayPal

You can now get a subscription, support GDevelop development and get more one-click online exports every day, using PayPal (or using credit cards as previously).

5.0.139

💝 Improvements

The homepage is dead, long live the homepage

The editor homepage has been revamped:

• New "Get Started" section, to guide newcomers on where to start with GDevelop
• New "Build" section, the entry point for your projects
• New "Learn" section, the entry point to tutorials and future help tools
  • Tutorials have been categorized so that you can easily watch tutorials adapted to your level
• New "Play" section, the entry point for all games created with GDevelop
• New "Community" section, the entry point to stay informed with the GDevelop world

UI changes that came along with it:

  • Also add new languages FR, PT & ES
• Adapt themes' colors for better contrast across the app
• Add a new "Rosé Pine" theme (Code Editor & UI Theme)
  • Based on https://rosepinetheme.com/ and adapted by @ehanahamed for GDevelop.

Get insights about how your games perform

Two new features can allow you to better understand how your games are doing:

• You can now open your game for feedbacks from the players
  
  • A banner will appear on your game and build pages on Liluo.io, allowing the player to rate your game/build and leave comments on it.
    
  • A new Feedbacks tab was added in the games dashboard that allows you to see and process the feedbacks given to your game/build.
• In the Analytics tab, you can now visualize in-depth data about how your players play your game. It will help you understand how well a game is doing on several aspects:
  • The popularity (number of players)
  • The player engagement (how long the game is played)
    
    Note that players' data are fully anonymized.

And other changes that come with it:

• Slight rework of the game dashboard
• Allow to specify a game build name and delete old builds.

Other changes

• Tile maps collisions:
  • The collision mask is now automatically read from the tile maps exported by Tiled 1.9+.
  • Several collision masks can be used for instance to have platforms and ladders.
  • Take a look at the wiki for more details https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/objects/tilemap
• Leaderboards:

  This allows to easily update a payment method or switch to another plan/cancel (though this can already be done from the interface)
• Add an option in the Resources editor to preload audio files in the cache without decoding (Thanks @dos1!)
  • This is helpful to load the audio files when the game loads (so even if the internet connection is lost, they will be available in the "browser cache") but without decoding them in memory (which could make too much work for low-end devices, resulting in crashes)
• Make radian or degree explicit in descriptions for angles
• Automatically open a scene when a project is opened
• Add an option to wait for a network request action to end before running other actions (Thanks @arthuro555!)
  • In the future, there will be other actions where you can optionally wait for their tasks to be finished before running the rest of the actions. It makes logic easier and more straightforward to express in events.
  • This is similar to the Wait action, except that it's optional.
• Add a toggle to display community extensions
  • Community extensions are extensions made by a community member, but which are not reviewed by the GDevelop extension team.
    They can be useful, but also need to be carefully reviewed if you use some (inspect them or reach out to their author in case of doubt).
  • If you want to submit an extension, see the GitHub repository of community extensions.
• Avoid bad expression warnings in the console when using force actions without changing the force type
• Don't show objects already in a group in the selector to add a new object to this group (Thanks @arthuro555!)
• Adding actions to tween the value of a scene variable or a layer camera position (Thanks @arthuro555!)
  • Like tweens added on objects, these tweens can be manipulated: paused, resumed or stopped.
