GB Studio 4.1.0 now available! Chris Maltby 2024-09-02 | This release is a big quality of life update! There’s so many improvements I can’t list them all here!GB Studio is a quick and easy to use drag and drop retro game creator for your favourite handheld video game system.Please support on Patreon at: patreon.com/gbstudiodev 🙏❤️Download at:chrismaltby.itch.io/gb-studioWith this release your project files are getting an upgrade. The first time you save your project in 4.1.0 it will be split into multiple files within a new “project” folder. Instead of everything being in a single “.gbsproj” file, each resource (such as actors, triggers, and scenes) will have its own dedicated file. This update will make it much easier to track changes in your version control system, and makes it easier to work in teams.You can now create reusable actor and trigger “prefabs”! Perfect for making common elements like enemies or collectables. Design them once, and reuse them as many times as needed. Plus, when you update a prefab, all instances of it across your project will automatically update too.Dialogue boxes can now have customised layouts! Set whether text should appear at the top or bottom of the screen, if a frame should be drawn, and set specific conditions for when the text box should close. To manage these new options, there’s a new “Presets” feature, which allows you to define multiple layouts and even set a default one. The presets feature has been enabled for Projectiles too!Version 4.1.0 also introduces the ability to run scripts on new threads, enabling you to have multiple things happening simultaneously. So no need for workarounds, like repurposing actor update scripts anymore!Sorry for the wall of text! There’s much more than just these changes though, the full changelog is available at github.com/chrismaltby/gb-studio/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#410---2024-09-02If you spot any problems, please make sure to report an issue at github.com/chrismaltby/gb-studio/issues
