🏔️ New 3D terrain, grass and water objects

A new experimental 3D terrain object is now available. Try it in this new example.
- You can sculpt the terrain directly in the editor and also paint it.
- Up to 4 different textures and/or colors, with support for normal maps.
- Terrain can be edited during the game with actions.
- Randomized terrain can also be generated.
- Wetness and custom color can be painted.
- Terrain can be used with 3D physics (just add the 3D Physics behavior to your terrain) and the 3D "NavMesh" based pathfinding.
The terrain comes with additional objects to draw maps easily and efficiently:
- Fast rendering of grass is available as a "Terrain Grass" object. The grass will either be displayed where it's placed in the scene when used alone, or will position itself on the terrain if it's positioned above one or more 3D terrains.
- Vegetation, forest, rocks and large number of medium to small objects can be drawn using the "Scattered models" object. They will be displayed on the scene on the area of the instance, and will sit on the terrain if positioned above one. 3D Physics and navmesh will properly avoid instances drawn on the level.
A new 3D water object is also available, allowing to render semi-transparent, realistic looking water.
ℹ️ These objects are new and provided, like many other features of GDevelop like 3D lights and 3D particles, through reusable extensions. Be sure to regularly check if there are new versions available.
🎇 Upgraded 3D rendering with improved shadows and new effects (ambient occlusion...)

The 3D rendering (based on Three.js) was upgraded with:
- Better quality shadows when using a direction light ("sun" light). Be sure to upgrade the rendering mode to "Fitted to camera view" in existing games to benefit from it.
- New 3D effects: faster bloom, depth of field, ambient occlusion, tone mapping. You can try them in the same example as the 3D terrain here.
- Lights are now using realistic, physics based formula for their rendering.
⚠️ Existing games must upgrade the Light3D extension to v2.0. You must then adapt the intensity and decay of the point and spot lights, usually by increasing the light intensity by at least 10.
This is because lights are now using a realistic, physics based formula for their rendering.
Note that you can upgrade Light3D to v2.0 and it will still work in previous GDevelop versions.
⚠️ Any game using extensions using Three.js/3D rendering should upgrade them to the latest version. If you are the author of such an extension, see here how to upgrade.
🏂 Custom easings for Tweens

Custom "cubic-bezier" easing, as well as custom "easing functions" with a name that can be reused in the project, are now available for the Tween extension (thanks @ViktorVovk!).
- Tweens can now use a custom easing curve, in addition to the built-in named easings (linear, easeInQuad, ...). A custom curve is written like in CSS: "cubic-bezier(x1,y1,x2,y2)".
- The easing field gets a Custom curve... entry that opens a visual curve editor.
- New custom easing can be named and reused across the project (or across an extension)
🎮 New starters and examples games
New starters have been added, including a good basis to build your own FNAF-like game.

| FNAF | Minimalist GTA-like | GTA-like with a map |
| ---- | ------------------- | ------------------- |
| | | |

Existing 3D starters will be upgraded progressively to take advantage of the 3D terrain object, grass and new starters will be built with larger maps and using new objects like the new "Scattered models" to easily paint forest, vegetation and foliage.

🛠 Internal changes (for developers)
- Fix rapidjson build failure with GCC 15 (GenericStringRef assignment)

This release contains mainly bugfixes for "gameplay tests". See the release notes of version 5.6.278 to learn about them.

🗺️ New experimental "navmesh-based" pathfinding behavior for 2D and 3D
This pathfinding works in 2D and 3D is more flexible than the "grid-based" existing pathfinding. Use the "Pathfinding character" behaviors on the object that must move and add the "Floor/obstacle for pathfinding" behavior to all objects where characters must be able to walk or consider as obstacles (or for 2D: only on obstacles). Read more about it in this documentation page.
- For 3D models, you can optionally choose, like for 3D physics, to follow the exact mesh of the 3D model for pathfinding - allowing characters and objects to move on or around the 3D model naturally.
- It handles "crowds" of characters, which can all go to a destination avoiding each others:

🏃‍♂️ [Advanced] Add experimental gameplay tests
A gameplay test plays a game: it presses keys, moves the mouse, touches the screen, then checks that what should happen actually happens. For example, if the coin is collected, the score goes up, the enemy hurts the player... Tests run in a preview of the game, usually much faster than real time. Read more about them on this page.
These tests are helpful for:
- Catching regressions: after changing events or objects, re-run your tests to make sure the basics are still working.
- Reproducing difficult bugs: use the test to set up your game to reproduce then fix a bug.
- Checking performance: measure how long frames take with many objects on screen and catch slowdowns early.

ℹ️ Gameplay tests are an advanced concept and are created using code to be as close as possible to the engine running the game.
- If you're a beginner, it's a good idea to start asking the GDevelop AI to build a simple gameplay test for your game or learn from examples in the docs.
- Whether your game is simple or complex, it's recommended to begin by making a very simple gameplay test to get started. You can then progressively create gameplay tests whenever you fix a bug or want to ensure something works in the game. Game studios or advanced users can also run the gameplay tests directly from the command-line.

- Make VSCode use GDJS TypeScript version

🐛 Bug fixes
- Improved panel sprite performance
- Fix a crash of the side panel

💝 Improvements
- Improve object list, project manager and other lists by having top header sticky, including sub-folders. This is helpful for large games when having a lot of objects in different folders for example.

- Improve sprite editor performance, especially when having a lot of animations.
- UI improvements:
- Focus the closest tab when a tab is closed, instead of the home tab.
- Collapsed sections in the side panel are now saved and persisted between usages.
- Tilemap improvements:
- Optimize tile map trimming. It avoids to scan all the tiles when scanning just a few rows and column is often enough (only 2 tiles in the best case scenario).
- Allow to edit external tile maps at runtime
- Add support for the latest Android version 16 (API 36) for Google Play exports.
- Also mention the Android file format ".AAB" in the Android export dialog (thanks @Bouh)

🛠 Internal changes (for developers)
- Run CLI commands in the live editor when the project is already open (Thanks @malec-palec!)
CLI commands with --run-command used to always start a separate headless process, even when the target project was already open in the editor. They now goes to the live window so results (for example imported extensions) appear in memory right away, without reopening the project.
- Add support for experimental script-based agents. This, and the previous point, are stepping stones toward allowing to run scripts and commands through the command line to control the editor and edit the game projects.
- Add test projects for the documentation
- Enhance CLI export behavior with diagnostic error handling (thanks @ViktorVovk!):
- Added flags --block-on-diagnostic-errors and --no-block-on-diagnostic-errors to control export behavior based on project diagnostic errors.
- Also modified recent project handling to exclude headless CLI commands from the recent projects list.
- Update all examples legacy actions/conditions to internal new names

- New actions to list, delete, check, and duplicate existing saves.
- Also added ability to wait for actions to be finished before running subsequent actions/sub-events.
- Properties of most behaviors can now be customized per instance in the side panel. Select one or more instances, open the "Behaviors" section and then a behavior to edit its properties.
- Properties that have a different value on the instance compared to the object are shown in white. Other properties keep their default value set on the object.
- This is for example useful to change a speed, jump height, etc... of a specific instance.

- The properties panel also now allows to edit behavior properties of the selected object group. An object group will show the behaviors that are in common between all objects of the group.
- Add configurable custom resource properties via gdevelop-settings.yaml (Thanks @luciuses and @ViktorVovk!)
- Adds support for configurable custom resource properties. Projects can now declare extra metadata fields for their resources via a new resourceCustomProperties section in gdevelop-settings.yaml. These fields render in the Resource editor and persist into the resource's metadata JSON.
- Allow an option to add new properties from a variable parameter in events of extensions.
🐛 Bug fixes

- Object group properties are also now displayed in this side panel when a group is selected.
- Update Spine extension to the official Esoteric Software runtime for PixiJS v7 (@esotericsoftware/spine-pixi-v7@4.2.116) (thanks @malec-palec!)
- The new runtime only fully supports skeletons exported from Spine 4.2. Older exports (e.g. 4.0) may partially render but mesh deformations won't work due to a Spine JSON schema change (deform → attachments).
- Add tile scale property to 3D Box object:
- It defaults to 1 (same rendering as a Tiled Sprite in 2D). Changing the tile scale is useful for 3D games which can set it to a lower value like 0.2 to avoid textures being "too big" (and rendering with a bad quality) when the camera is near 3D Box instances.
- Also add ready-to-use choices for new 3D box objects from the asset store (public domain textures)
- Automatically add a "return" action in new custom expressions.

- Fix corrupted display of instance when dragging an object back to the objects list in custom object editor

💝 Improvements
- Add "syntax highlighting" for expressions in Events Sheet: complex expressions and formula will now be shown using multiple colors, like the rest of events. This allows to identify objects, numbers, strings in a long formula.

- UI improvements:
- Add "Select All" in Events Sheet and ability to deselect an event when doing a multi-selection (Thanks @ViktorVovk!)

- New icons for premium subscribers on the forum and Discord:
- A new role is now shown for Silver subscribers on Discord.
- A subscriber icon (Silver, Gold, Pro, Education) is now visible on your forum account, if you use the same email between your GDevelop and the forum.
- Add argument for CLI command execution for CI pipelines (Thanks @malec-palec!)
- Add --run-command CLI flag that executes any Command Palette command after loading a project.
In CLI mode all blocking dialogs (autosave, changelog, confirmations) are auto-resolved, the window is hidden, and the process exits with a meaningful exit code.
- This enables CI pipelines to run exports (e.g. EXPORT_HTML5_EXTERNAL) using only the editor distribution - no installation or display required.

⚙️ Extensions
- [Experimental] [3D foliage swaying] Sway foliage of 3D objects according to wind (thanks @baldieandbaldie-commits)

This extension adds wind swaying ability and optional GPU instancing to 3D objects (trees, grass, bushes) with frustum and distance culling. This is an advanced extension and while a lightweight example will be made later, you can for now try the full example by downloading it on the GitHub thread of the extension.
It comes with:
- Real-time foliage 

💡 New 3D Spot Light and Point Light objects
3D lights can now be used with the new "3D spot light" and "3D point light" objects! You can find them in the "New Object" dialog. Check out the documentation here.

Light objects can be demanding on the GPU, especially when they cast shadows. To allow to add many lights to a scene, the engine automatically hides the lights farthest from the camera. By default, the limits are 20 visible light objects and 4 light objects casting shadows (the closest to the camera). Read more in the documentation.
💝 Improvements
- Reworked events sheet design (thanks @LuniMoon!):
- Colors adjusted to match accessibility standards,
- Refined borders around conditions/actions
- Handles of comments/groups are colored as the event itself,
- Spacing, borders and other tweaks.
- Fix default variable string value being "0" instead of empty:
- Before, variable were set to the string "0" even though displaying as empty in the list of variables.
- Projects created before 5.6.267 will keep the same behavior (0 as default value for string variables) with an option to upgrade to the new behavior in the project properties dialog. This allows previous projects to keep backward compatibility and not break. It's recommended to activate this option and check that your game continues to work as soon as you can (keep a backup in case you want to upgrade later).
- Projects created from 5.6.267 will use the new default behavior (empty as default value).
- Improve 2D lights collision calculation for better performance.
- Add expressions to access the components of forward/up/right vectors of 3D objects
- These are advanced expressions mostly useful for extensions manipulating objects in 3D space.
- Add experimental configuration to allow object resources to be loaded independently from the scene.
- This is an advanced, experimental feature which is subject to changes. It's in most cases not useful, unless you have a large game or low end devices for which controlling memory usage is important. It's mostly useful to delay loading of large custom objects.
- Objects can be configured so that its resources are not loaded when the scene is loaded. Instead, you can use an action to manually load the resources used by it. When the loading is finished (this can be checked using a condition), the object can then be created. Read the documentation to learn more.
- Be careful: if an object assets are not loaded before being created, it will be broken when displayed on screen.
- Improve premium courses structure.
- Add editor lifecycle hooks for auto running npm scripts (rhanks @ViktorVovk!). See documentation here.
- Three hooks are implemented: onEditorReady, onPreviewStart, onPreviewEnd.
- Auto-execution of hooked scripts requires user consent.
- Improve handling of devices with both a mouse and touchscreen so GDevelop can be controlled both ways in one session
- Improve desktop app updater messages and actions
- Regularly check for updates, not only on launch
- When update is downloaded, notification to restart & install
- also display version number in notification
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix created child objects instances in custom objects being wrongly picked twice in events
- Fix potential crash in scene editor when reloading resources with custom objects
- Fix GDO import and export never finishing loading
- Fix crashes when using invalid object names in object folders
- iOS export fixes:
- Fix screen orientation not working anymore
- Fix export not working with Admob extension
- Fix file uploads (for extensions for instance) not working on some web browsers like Firefox
- Fix unloading extensions instructions properly when closing project
- This was causing actions/conditions/expressions from extensions of previous projects to be still visible in a new project, even if not available.
- Fix particle emitter gravity length action when it was 0
- Fix structure children not being shown while searching variables
- Fix tentatively crash in

🪟 Experimental option to open editors in separate windows
Right clicking on a tab now displays an option to detach a tab into a separate window (both on the desktop app and the web-app).

This enables to work on events sheet, extensions or other parts of a game without switching between tabs. It's also perfect for multi-monitor displays.
- ⚠️ This is an experimental feature: some part of the editor might not be fully ready for changes to be done in another window. In case of crash or suspicious behavior when using a tab, please report the issue on the forum or Discord and re-open the editor.
Make sure to do regular backups of your game as with any experimental feature.
- Limitation: it works for Events Sheets, Extensions, Global Search, Resources but not for scene editors which must stay in the main window at this time.
💝 Improvements
- Add "Reload Project" menu action (thanks @malec-palec!)
- Make clear in Storage actions if a number or text is being written

- Fix tentatively crashes at scene editor resize

💝 Improvements
- Extend the Diagnostic Report to cover events in extensions (thanks @malec-palec!)
- The Diagnostic Report previously only scanned scene events and external events for validation errors. It now also reports issues in events inside extension functions - including top-level ("free") functions, behavior functions, and object functions - detecting missing instructions and invalid parameters.
- Store-installed extensions are excluded from the scan
- Disabled ("commented out") events and their sub-events are not reported anymore (as they don't impact the game).

💝 Improvements
- Introduce Global Search, allowing to search in all Events Sheets (including extensions) (thanks @ViktorVovk!)
- Global Search can be opened using Ctrl+Shift+F (or Cmd+Shift+F). The shortcut works from any editor, even if the Global Search is already opened, allowing to quickly launch a new search.
- Click on any search result to open the corresponding events sheet with the result(s) highlighted.
- By default, extensions from the store are excluded from results. You can change this in the filters.

This fix a bug wrongly replacing variables in the Events Sheet after editing an object (using the object editor dialog, not the properties panel). Upgrading is highly recommended!
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix variable of objects used in events broken after opening the object editor

This solves crashes happening in the Events Sheet since the release from ~2 weeks ago. Upgrading is highly recommended!
💝 Improvements

- Fix npm commands not working with projects on a different disk on Windows (Thanks @opaldi!)
- Fix For Each events rendering when disabled and default values
⚙️ Extensions
- [Reviewed] [Score counter] Allow to use a bitmap text

💝 Improvements
- Add support for For Each events ordered by an expression, with an optional limit. For advanced use cases where it's important to run events on each instance of an object with an ordering, an expression can be written and will be evaluated for each instance separately. The For Each will then execute for each instance in the order of the results.
- It's possible to change the direction (ascending or descending)
- It's also possible to give a limit (for example, 1 will allow to pick just the instance with the highest/lowest value for the expression).
- Examples are provided in the UI for common use cases (maximum value of a variable, health points, ammo, distance to another object...)
In the following example, the 3 monsters that are the closest to the player will blink:
- Improved UI:
- Updated interface for the Anchor behavior with more intuitive buttons to choose horizontal and vertical anchoring.

- Removed the + button that was wrongly shown to add an instance variable (instance variables can only "override" the values of the variables defined in the object)
- Fix paste/delete a child of structure/array of a variable that is re-defined in instances variables. Previously it was not possible to paste a variable as a child of a instance variable that was a structure/array. This is now possible (and fully supported - you can't add new variables at the "root", but items inside structures/arrays can be changed).
- Fix property group wrongly set when dragging a folder to the root
- Fix opening the 3D editor not working after launching a preview first on the web
- Fix missing information related to center/origin of an object when created by the AI

New ready-to-use "Custom Objects"
Volume controls and game over dialogs are now available in the list of objects which can be imported in your game, with multiple designs coming from the asset store. These are ready-to-use objects, built thanks to GDevelop custom objects ("prefabs") feature.

We encourage you check how they are built and edit them to create new "variants" to adapt them to your game:

As with all custom objects ("prefabs"), custom behaviors and extensions in general, they are open-source and available as extensions and ready-made assets on the Asset Store: feel free to open a Pull Request/issue to submit improved versions or new design variants.
💝 Improvements
- Improve resource tab with shortcuts: rename, delete and navigate resources with arrows
- Add an action to close game lobbies window (usually not useful as the window is closing by itself, but could be used in some cases if the game wants to force the window to close).
- Improve tooltip background color for all themes
- Improve the Diagnostic Report (thanks @malec-palec!):
- Add a shortcut (F7 by default) and command in the command palette to open diagnostic report at any time.
- The report now scans project for missing actions/conditions/expressions from extensions and reports invalid parameters (shown with red underline in Events Sheet)
- Click on error location to navigate directly to the event
- Improve Tilemap edition with new tools:
- New Freehand Brush tool: it works with multiple tiles and single tile.
- New Picker tool (when used, your previous tool before picking is saved and restored once picking is done)
- New Bucket Fill tool: it can replace existing tiles or empty spaces. Filling is limited to the tilemap bounds within the canvas.
- The Rectangle tool replaces the old Paint Brush tool.
- Optimize drawing performance: reduce and limit the number of points stored while the cursor moves.
- Add support for local variables for loop events (While, Repeat, For Each, For Each Child Variable) and loop counter variable:
- Right click/long press on an event and choose "Add" then "Loop Counter Variable" or "Local Variable".
- The loop counter starts from 0 and is automatically increased by 1 each time the event is repeated.
- "For Each Child Variable" now also properly support choosing local variables for the variable to iterate on, for the variable where to store the child and the optional variable where to store the name. Using local variables for these is highly encouraged.
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix image preview in Resources Editor blinking with wrong dimensions for a split second
- Fix else events not working properly when after a disabled event or comment:
- Also improve the UI to not show horizontal bars for disabled events and comments

- It should be way faster and crash way less.

💝 Improvements
- Add support for marking extension functions as deprecated, with visual warnings/explanations (thanks @danvervlad!)
🐛 Bug fixes
- Improved Else support
- Prevent wrong toolbar actions being shown when navigating tabs

⚙️ Support for "Else" events
You can now add Else in the events sheet, after a traditional event:

The Else is a "logical statement": the event will run its conditions and execute its actions only if the previous event conditions are not met. Objects are picked like in a traditional event (without considering what happened in the previous event).
While "Else" are rarely used in GDevelop compared to a traditional programming language, it can be useful when building logic where you're doing checks on a variable and changing it, or any logic where you want to be sure that only one event execute and skip others if one was executed.
💝 Improvements
- Upgrade the desktop app as well as exported games to run with Electron v32 (thanks @arthuro555!)
- This should provides various performance improvements and better rendering/GPU support.
- Add support for skin management in Spine objects (thanks @ViktorVovk!)
- Allow opening multiple GDevelop windows on Desktop:
- This is useful to open multiple projects at the same time for instance.
- This was previously causing issues where GDevelop was stuck trying to log in.
- Optimize simple tile maps with huge dimensions: they are now are faster to create and modify at runtime.
- Allow to override behavior properties on object instances: for now, this is limited to instances inside custom objects. This will be made available in the future for all instances in scenes if this works well.
- Display an audio preview in the resources editor and when editing actions.
- Add support for custom toolbar buttons on GDevelop desktop version (thanks @malec-palec!). This adds support for configurable toolbar buttons in the GDevelop desktop editor that execute npm scripts from a package.json file stored next to your project file. Buttons must be defined in a gdevelop-settings.yaml file, also stored in the project directory.
For example, create a gdevelop-settings.yaml containing:
toolbarButtons:
- name: "Build"
icon: "🔨"
npmScript: "build"
- name: "Test"
icon: "🧪"
npmScript: "test"

💝 Improvements
- The AI panel now allows to rollback your (cloud) project to a previous version. When the AI starts or finishes working, the project is now automatically saved and can be restored in a click. This is perfect for experimenting, trying new approaches or just building without losing your changes.
When you restore your project, a new conversation is "forked" from the existing one, allowing you to continue building exactly at the time you restored the project and the AI chat.
Remember that you can also restore your Cloud projects manually from any save using the project history panel.
- More AI improvements:
- Resources (for example, audio files) are now automatically imported when needed by events, and shown in the chat,
- Robustifed AI asset search and handling of layers
- The editor mode (2D/3D) is now saved per scene, so it can be restored when the game is reopened
- Add a button to reset properties to their default values in the properties panel.
- Display the new, upgraded subscription screen for users with or without a subscription.
- Allow extensions to give choices between a set of numbers.

🕹 Premium Game Templates
- Add a new paid game template: 3D Survival Game by Crowbar_Coder

💝 Improvements
- Add support for using a custom shape ("Mesh") for static objects having the 3D physics behavior.
- This allows your characters and other dynamic objects to collide exactly with the shape of a platform, background or any static 3D object.
- By default, the model of the 3D model itself is used. You can choose to use another model if needed (useful in case of a very complex 3D model: you can make the collision happen on a simplified version).
- The Physics engine was also upgraded to Jolt-Physics.js 0.39.0.
- Improve the list of objects, in the new object dialog, with custom objects provided by extensions:
- Extensions, behaviors and objects lists now follow the same layout,
- Assets are suggested for most custom objects provided by extensions, so you can start from a ready-to-use, pre-designed object.
- Add point attachment rotation and scale conditions/expressions for Spine (Thanks @ViktorVovk!)
- Add action to change the image of Tiled Sprite objects (rhanks @malec-palec!)
- Add support for per-project editor preferences via a gdevelop-settings.yaml file (thanks @malec-palec!):

- Add automatic retry when installing extension to avoid intermittent failures.
- Fix a crash when reloading the game page after a hot-reload
- Fix variable or property initial values wrongly rounded to 6 digits
- Fix loading of resources not properly retried when a resource can't be loaded (for example: network error) (thanks @ViktorVovk!)
- Typically, when resources are downloaded from a CDN, then sometimes, for various reasons, a request for a resource may fail. In such cases, it’s very useful to have retry for avoiding intermittent issues.
- Fix arrow keys not working in the layer list. Also clear layer selection when an object is selected.
- Fix object effect toggles not being applied at preview.
- Fix private objects not appearing in the list from within the extension

Introducing the 3D, real-time editor in GDevelop 5.6
GDevelop 5.6 is now available with a full 3D and real-time editor. The new editor provides you the tools to navigate, build and edit any kind of 3D scenes. This is the first version of the 3D editor, so expect more updates, bugfixes and improvements in the coming weeks.

The 3D editor can be activated using the 3D mode in the top toolbar. Once launched, all the features for 3D edition are available:
- You can move using the "free camera" mode, allowing you to fly in the scene, moving the camera with the keyboard WASD or arrow keys, or the mouse wheel.
- Press F to focus the selected object and automatically switch to the "orbital camera" allowing to move around it.
- You can select, move, rotate and resize object instances using the "gizmo" tool shown on the selection.
- Grab an object using the handle at the center of the gizmo and drag objects naturally — they'll automatically project onto the ground or other surfaces beneath them
📱 On touchscreens, use 1 finger to select/move instances, 2 fingers to move or zoom and 3 fingers to rotate the view.
More than just a 3D editor, the new editor is real-time preview of the game:
- See layer effects and object effects applied in real time,
- Dynamic lighting: Watch as lights illuminate your scene with realistic shadows,
- Adjust colors, scales, rotations, and more in the sidebar and see changes instantly.

You can edit scene, external layouts and custom objects:
- Custom objects ("prefabs") are "composite objects", built with one or more other objects and optionally some logic. Think of them as objects containing their own scene inside. They can now be edited in 3D exactly like a traditional scene.
- When navigating outside of a custom object, they are now rendered in the scenes using it (and in other custom objects that also embed it) exactly like in the game.
- Objects like 3D particles have specific rendering in the 3D editor, and custom objects will be able to change their rendering using events. For example, the 3D Height Map objects can now display their actual geometry in the editor.
Read the full announcement on the GDevelop blog and learn about the technical architecture in this article.
👉 More to come
The 3D editor is a solid foundation for the future. Like everything with the GDevelop game engine, the 3D editor is open-source. It opens the door to even more powerful features we're planning:
- Full manipulation of 2D objects in the scene from the 3D editor. For now, 2D objects can't be edited in the 3D editor.
- Support for point and spot light objects, with real-time preview of them in the editor,
- Collision meshes,
- Custom shaders that can be authored and previewed in real-time in the editor,
- Additional visualization options for custom extensions,
- More performance improvements and, obviously, bug fixes.
🕹 Example
- A new free example: 3D Wipeout Platformer
🎨 Assets
- Add a new free pack: Wipeout 3D
- Add a new premium pack: Total Wipeout Obstacle 3D
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix broken 'Pick nearest' action

🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix a bug where deleting a light object would make all instances disappear

💝 Improvements
- Add extra descriptions for some 3D physics properties.
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix broken preview due to running a second preview while the first is loading.
- Fix extension not unloading correctly when it's removed while its tab is active.

💝 Improvements
- Various AI improvements:
- Suggestions are now shown after each relevant step in the AI agent flow,
- The AI chat design was improved so that it's easier to follow what the AI agent does to the project,
- AI is now using flexible AI credits to track the consumption:
- AI credits are given every week to GDevelop accounts with a membership. They allow to make requests to the AI and these AI credits are consumed according to the complexity of the AI answer and the work it's doing.
- This is more flexible than the previous system of AI requests, which would be consumed even if the answer of the AI was very short. The AI credits adapt better to conversations and back-and-forth between the user and the AI.
- Accounts without a premium membership still get 40 credits for free every month to try the AI.
- The default orientation of newly created 3D model objects was changed to face axis X+. This is better adapted to GLTF conventions and GDevelop axes orientation for most 3D games.
- Extension improvements:
- When an extension is installed, any extension that it depends on is now automatically installed too.
- And when an extension is removed, a warning about any dependent extensions is shown.
- Actions/conditions can now use parameters and properties of type "resource".
- Various UI improvements:
- Show object parameters in red if any behavior parameter is wrongly filled,
- Display a placeholder when the Spine resource is invalid
- Automatically fill behavior parameters when an object is set
- Improve panels positioning when opened:
- Left and right panels now have an equal size by default,
- Bottom panel is in-between the left and right panels
- If multiple panels on the right, or bottom, they take half of the size.
- When closed and re-opened, panels keep their position on the screen.
🐛 Bug fixes

- This is for users looking to learn JavaScript basics, implement complex patterns in their games, and learn how to manipulate GDevelop objects through JavaScript.
- AI Agent improvements:
- Improve Layers and Camera documentation, so the agent can more reliably modify layer properties,
- Improve the AI to allow the agent to modify (or add or remove) object groups in scenes,
- allow using "up" and "down" arrows to navigate through chat history in the AI agent & chat.
- Improve previews on the web-app:
- Support for hot-reloading (like on the desktop app),
- Huge speed-up (no more file uploads, everything is done locally on the device storage),
- Fix for Safari/Firefox not opening the preview window.
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix Tilemaps layers visibility not being taken into account in the game

💾 Save States: introducing ready-to-use, flexible "Save & Load" actions
The new "Save State" actions allow to save & load an entire game - or some part of it - using only a few actions.
By default, the save and load actions will save the full state of your game at any time — including all objects, variables, sounds, effects, and more. Saves can either be handled by GDevelop (which will save it on the device internal storage using the name you specify) or stored in a variable, giving you full control on where you store the content of this variable.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ca867bb8-b48f-4135-b4f2-38a155636416
The Save State page of the documentation describes all the features of this new feature, including:
- Adding the "Save configuration" behavior to your objects to exclude some objects from the saves (typically, interface or visual controls should all be excluded to avoid them being moved when reloading a save)
- Excluding variables from being saved/loaded.
- Saving/loading from a variable.
- Using "profiles" to tag objects (or variables, or game/scene data) and only save/restore these.
👉 This new example shows how to use the actions.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9a197d9d-9ca6-4fe0-89e6-1c8011d56f80
The "Save & Load" actions are useful to do quick saves, long-term saves (for example, when a level is completed) or easily implement checkpoints (for example, save enemies/coins and restore them if the player dies and restart from the last checkpoint).
⚠️ While it will work in most cases, there are still a few limitations, notably saving of custom objects, and some objects/behaviors could have edges cases when restored from a save. The extension is tagged as Experimental while we gather feedback and improve it.
💝 Improvements
- Add "Pick Nearest" and "Rotate toward object" actions.
- UI improvements:
- Automatically scroll down the AI Panel when the AI is working

💝 Improvements
- All community extensions can now be browsed on this new Community List page. This is a big list of all extensions made by members of the GDevelop community. It's accessible from the GDevelop website top menu and will be added progressively to other repositories.
- Feel free to suggest links to your own extensions. The GDevelop Extensions Team won't make a review of your extension, but will just ensure it's safe and will add it to the list.
👉 You can open an issue or, better, a Pull Request to add your extension with a description and a link to it.
There is no quality or code criteria to add an extension to the Community List (as long as the extension is safe to use and does not contain malware or illegal content). You're responsible for the quality and maintenance of your extension.
- Community extensions inside GDevelop have been renamed to "Experimental" extensions. The new name to indicates that they are peer reviewed so that they can progressively be improved, to be possibly moved to the reviewed extensions at some point.
We hope this new, easily accessible list will help both contributors share their extensions easily and encourage trying new things. Once your extension reaches a point of maturity, feel free to also suggest it to be added as an experimental extension to the GDevelop Extensions repository.

- Fix 3D impulse and force toward a point actions
- Fix effect default values
- Fix multiplayer synchronization of custom object positions
- Fix 3D physics behaviors activation and deactivation

- [3D car coin hunt] Fix the road physics shape Z offset.
🕹 Premium Game Templates
- [Idle Clicker Template] Fixed a rare bug where if you killed the boss and immediately quit the game and return, the player will no longer move (soft lock)

Note for users who tried version 5.5.235 (pre-release version): the elevation and rotation properties of the Directional Light have been updated. You need to update them in your game.
🕶️ Introducing basic support for shadows

Realistic shadows can now be rendered for 3D objects in your scenes using a Directional Light. By default, all new games and new scene layers now come with both a Directional Light and an Ambient Light. This gives a result similar to sunlight casting shadows in the real world.
- 3D models and 3D cubes are now casting shadows. To make sure they appear properly:
- Set the object’s material to Standard (not Basic, which doesn’t react to lighting).
- Make sure Shadow Casting and Shadow Receiving are enabled.
This is done by default for new objects you create or import from the Asset Store.
- Shadows are rendered around the camera on an area that is large enough for most games while giving still good quality results. This means they should work out of the box and be adapted to most games, including large maps.
You can adapt the quality of shadows, intensity of the light (and so shadows), the size of the rendered area by editing the 3D effects of the layer in the scene (as for other effects).
Note: power users may be interested to look at the new Advanced 3D Features community extension by @PANDAKO-GitHub. This is an unofficial extension but has many effects and features extending the 3D capabilities of GDevelop.

Shadows in the 3D platformer example.
Some tweaks and changes to shadow rendering might happen in the next versions according to usability and performance (notably on mobile). For now, only shadows rendered by a unique Directional Light in the scene are supported. 3D lights ("Spotlights") will be added later after ensuring they can be used without risking big performance drops.
📚 New Premium courses in the "Learn tab"
Two new premium courses are now available in the "Learn" tab:
- Make a Platformer Game: learn how to build a modern 2D platformer game step by step. This course walks you through designing two levels with effects like slow motion and screen transitions and gameplay mechanics such as smash and dash. You'll also implement interactive elements (checkpoints, respawn logic...). Each of the 6 chapters includes an exclusive video tutorial and a ready-to-use template.
- How To Market & Sell Your Game: a complete course explaining what to know about game marketing. Spread the word on social media, attract players, and how to start generating revenue. The course has real-world case studies, actionable tips, and proven strategies to help you grow your community, build momentum, and successfully market your game.
🟡 All these GDevelop-exclusive courses will soon become distinct & unique products, that can be purchased (lifetime access) without a monthly subscription.
In the meantime, they are accessible for a week for everybody who has a subscription (Silver, Gold or Pro).
The full GDevelop Master Course, featuring 15 chapters including dozens of tasks and step-by-step answers, will remain available to all subscribers. Thank you for your support!

💝 Improvements
- Allow to unload scene resources when a scene is exited (thanks @ViktorVovk!)
- This adds two new settings, available in the Project Properties and in the Scene Properties dialog, to allow to specify the strategy for preloading resources of the scenes and unloading them. By default, a game will preload in background the resources of all scenes. It will never unload these resources (so scene switching is fast).
- You can now choose to unload the resources of a scene when the scene is left using the "Resources unloading" field. If the scene is launched again later, it will load its resources again.
- You can also choose to change the preloading to disable it for all scenes (by modifying the setting in the project properties) or enable it/disable it on a scene by scene basis. This can be useful for large or modular games where you anticipat

This is a bug fix release - read all the new features, including the AI agent, in the notes of the next release.
🐛 Bug fixes

- When multiple projects are linked to a game, only 3 are now visible in the quick menu to avoid overcrowding the menu, the others are accessible in the game dashboard itself
- Ensured the Home tab is still shown when a project is opened on small screens (+ improve scroll animation to active tab)
🐛 Bug fixes
- Type checking in JavaScipt code block events, which was enabled in the previous version, has been removed until all autocompletions are properly handled. While type checking was enabled to make it easier and less error-prone to write JavaScript code, it was making the editing of JavaScript events too cumbersome (a lot of errors were shown in scripts, with a lot of false positive, diminishing the usefulness of the checking). It will be enabled again later when proper type definitions are available. Note that this does not impact at all how the games or extensions work.
- Fix the collision conditions for 3D physics characters (migrated to Jolt 0.31.0)
- Fix asset preview being too zoomed in.
- Remove logs for audio events when manipulating a sound/music on an unused channel, which was causing the previews to crash due to the log being spammed in the console.

🎇 The GDevelop team and contributors are wishing everyone a warm, joyful festive season and a bright start to the new year!
🎁 Introducing 3D Physics (based on Jolt Physics engine)
GDevelop now provides a powerful 3D Physics engine, allowing to create any kind of 3D games.
The 3D physics engine is powered by Jolt Physics a modern, performant, battle-tested, fully featured 3D physics engine used in AAA games, like Horizon: Forbidden West. The new 3D physics engine is perfect for making FPS, TPS, 3D platformers and in the future 3D racing games or any 3D game.

You can try this example of a 3D platformer game that is powered by the new 3D physics engine here and edit it in the app. You can also try the simple 3D FPS example.
- Adding physics to 3D objects: similar to the 2D physics engine, you can add the 3D Physics behavior to your object. For example, add the behavior to platforms with the type set to "Static".
- You can choose the collider shape: box, sphere, cylinder or capsule and modify physics properties of the objects having this behavior - much like the 2D physics engine.
- For 3D characters: a dedicated "3D Physics Character" behavior is available.
- To actually move, pair it with one or more additional behaviors to get controls working out of the box: "3D Shooter keyboard mapper", "3D Platformer keyboard mapper", etc... Behaviors with support for touch screens, gamepads and keyboard/mouse have all been made and tested.
Take a look at the new example to give it a try! New examples and behaviors will be progressively added and existing 3D examples will be adapted. The wiki will also be updated in the next weeks with the different behaviors and capabilities provided.

🧑‍🏫 New premium, chapter-by-chapter course to learn and master GDevelop
We're releasing a premium course designed to let you learn and master everything you need to know about GDevelop and gamedev. It is available through the Learn tab in GDevelop for accounts having a premium membership. If you don't have a subscription to GDevelop, the 3 first chapters are offered for free and new chapters can also be unlocked individually with credits.

The course is designed to let you learn by doing and exploring the app. It will have a total of 15 chapters with:
- Dozens of action-oriented, specific goals to achieve in each chapter, with a full explanation for each, an illustration and an answer to reveal.
- Exclusive templates created for you to follow each lesson. Open the template, watch the video and start learning each goal one by one.
- An overall tracking of your progress.
The course can be followed on your computer or on the go using GDevelop mobile app. New chapters will be added soon!
🎯 Reworked "Create" tab on the homepage
The "Build" and "Manage" tabs have been merged into a single, simpler screen. From the Create tab, you can now access the projects you're working on (local projects or cloud projects), as well as manage the games you have published.

- If you have multiple local or cloud projects linked to a same game, the game will appear once in the list, and the projects will be grouped into it.
- When you create a new game, it will appear directly in this list. If the game is never saved (for example, you open a template without saving it first), it will be removed once closed and won't clutter this list.
- Games can be sorted by date of last change or by their popularity (number of sessions).
- Earnings (revenue sharing from ads on gd.games) are displayed at the top as well as your account total credits.

💝 Improvements
- Change scene editor title depending if instance or object edited on mobile
- Adapt the condition column size in the Events Sheet
- Also change the default extension editor layout.
- Merge the function properties and parameters tabs in the extension editor
- Automatically rename function parameters in events when a parameter is renamed.
- Add error display for some obvious semantic/type errors in JavaScript code blocks.
- A bett

💝 Improvements
- Add a new option for layers, to keep a layer centered when the game size changes, or keep it top-left fixed (as before).
- This is useful for layers which you want to stay on the center of the screen, which works well with the new option to extend width/height of the project without cropping the game area.
- If you already move the camera using events, this won't have any impact.
- This also works well when using the Anchor behavior to position objects on the screen.

- New, reworked "Create new game" dialog. It is now the entry point for creating a new game, allowing to:
- create an empty project from scratch
- (new!) use a "starting point" for your projects, to bootstrap your platformer, top-down or physics game. They are extremely simple template, with minimal gameplay, perfect for new users discovering GDevelop.
- start from a project customized by an AI,
- or as before, one of the many free or premium templates provided with GDevelop.

- Add an option in the game properties to extend width or height and never crop the game area.
- This can be used to ensure your game area is always fully displayed, with a background layer on which you use the "Anchor" behavior to position a tiled sprite or other objects:
As well as a few more improvements:
- Projects linked to a game are now shown and can be opened directly from the game dashboard.
- If a cloud project is not shown, it's usually enough to open it from the Build tab and save it so that it appears in the game dashboard.
- Add "Create new folder" menu item inside "Move to folder" menu.
- Improve LAN preview network to detect local ip properly for Network previews
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix for the anchor behavior when used on layers where the camera was moved. Anchored objects will now work whatever their layer and camera position.

- Fix custom objects inner area expansion on Z axis
- Fix variables from being renamed with a property
- Fix position conflicts between Physics and other movement behaviors
- Fix: Build tilemap renderer from an empty tilemap to be able to create tilemaps in-game

📝 🏎️ Objects now directly editable from the Properties panel

When an object is selected (or when "Edit object" is chosen in the Properties panel after choosing an instance), this panel will now show the object properties, behaviors, variables and effects. Everything can be directly edited from there.
This allows for fast edition of most elements of an object: appearance, properties, but also behaviors, variables, effects... Most work and iterations on your game should be faster, from adapting the appearance of a text to tweaking behaviors and updating the preview to check the result in realtime. For example, behaviors can be directly added, removed and configured:

💡 If you keep the preview of the game opened, on the desktop app, you can then click on the "Update" button in the toolbar to apply changes to the live game, without restarting the preview.
✈️ Custom objects ("prefabs") can now be created (Experimental)
Custom objects are containers, composed of one or more other objects and having custom logic (made with events, like in a traditional scene) inside them. In this new version of GDevelop, you can now select a few instances on the scene and extract them into a custom object that will contain them and their associated object:

"Custom objects" are also called "Prefabs" or "Templates" in some game engines.
They almost act like if they are a scene, but available as an object. Like custom behaviors, they can have actions, conditions and expressions, so they can be manipulated by the scene events. They allow to speed-up development and make games more modular by having an object that can be reused in different scenes.
For example, you can build:
- A custom object that is a dialog: a background, some text, some buttons. This allows to do all the logic related to this dialog inside the custom object events, without cluttering the scene.
- A character or some other game objects that is composed of multiple parts. For example,
Read the documentation to learn more about their usage.
You can see here the two buttons extracted into a custom object. Notice the checkered background indicating that this is not a scene but a custom object that can be reused in multiple scenes:

💝 Improvements
- UI Improvements across the app
- Allow closing & deleting an opened cloud project
- Add icons to help understand to scroll during in app tutorial
- See also all the improvements in version 5.4.215
🐛 Bug fixes
- A lot of fixes for custom object creation:
- Fix closing of custom object tabs when they are deleted from their extension
- Fix autocompletion of layers and points for custom object children
- Fix object lists not always up-to-date in the extension events editor after adding an object in the custom object editor
- Fix custom object editor not closed when the extension is renamed
- Fix mouse and key parameters for functions
- Fix custom object loading when opening a project
- Fix extraction to custom object sometimes using an already used name
- Fix wait action in custom objects
- Fix objects owned by Multiplayer host not being properly migrated when host changes
- Avoid intermittent game crash, due to an audio issue, when resuming the game (when focused back again)
- Fix memory corruption/crashes when events in extensions had errors

💝 Improvements
- New in-app tutorial explaining how to use a Tilemap and interact with it at runtime.
- When choosing a font or an audio file, the Asset Store will now display a preview and will allow to quickly search in all of them. This is perfect for quickly prototyping games. Note that the Asset Store is not shown anymore when choosing an image (it was confusing as all images were shown without links to their asset packs and without consideration as if they could be used as standalone images). Instead, consider using the menu option to swap an object.
- Add vertical alignment property for Text objects.

💝 Improvements
- Allow changing Opacity & Flip directly in Instance Properties Panel
- This allows playing around with instances directly on the canvas instead of relying on the actions to flip or change opacity and needing to start a preview
- Custom object layouting support: Instances in a custom object can now use the anchor behavior and, when used in another scene (or another custom object), the custom object will dynamically adapt the position of its instances according to its size.
- The teacher educational resources list have been updated to show the upcoming lessons we're preparing.

🎮 Multiplayer games improvements: Play as Guest + more
Play Stranded on a Raft on gd.games
- Introducing Play as Guest: players can now join as a "guest" player, without having sign up anymore. This should increase the number of players that are willing to try your multiplayer games. Anyone can join a game in a few seconds!
- Performance improvements with a new automatic "host migration" when the host player leaves:
- The host of a multiplayer game is now automatically migrated to a new one, picked from the list of players (the one with the lowest ping).
- A new condition "Is host migrating" is now available - in case you want to do something special in the gamewhile the migration happens. This can take up to a few seconds. If your game has no interactions between players, you can just do nothing. Otherwise, you may want to pause the game while the host is changing.
- A new action is available to configure the lobby game to end instead of migrating when the host leaves. This is useful if you prefer the host not changing during your game.
- Allow changing the synchronization rate of objects:
- The default "sync rate" of objects is set to 30 times per second - which is enough for most games.
- A new action can be used to update this value depending on the type of your game, at the cost of bandwidth. Fast-paced competitive? Go for 60. Slow turn-based game? 5 or 10 is probably enough.
Read more about all multiplayer features on the mutliplayer documentation page.
➕ Formulas in the instance properties

You can now write simple math formula in the property fields of an instance: for example, you can enter 100 + 50 or 100 + 70/2 or ToDeg(sin(2.3)) in the instance editor fields. This is helpful when you need to precisely set up the position of instances in a menu, UI or level.
🪙 gd.games ads earnings (Revenue Sharing) in your game dashboard

You can now see the earnings of the games you've published on gd.games at the top of your Games dashboard. You can either cash out that amount if you reach a certain threshold, or exchange your balance (at a preferential rate) for GDevelop credits that can be used on the asset store.
Read more about revenue sharing on this forum thread.
🛠️ Work-in-progress, experimental visual editor for custom objects ("prefabs")

An experimental, still work-in-progress, editor to build objects inside GDevelop - from small, reusable UI objects to larger parts of your game - is being finalized.
We're still improving the anchor behavior so that it can be used to position dynamically objects inside a Custom Object (which will be perfect for UI elements like dialogs, popups...). A bunch of bugs and limitations, listed below, are being worked on, so we only recommend advanced users to try this (and if you do, please give feedback on Discord "engine-development" channel).
List of limitations or bugs being worked on:
- Effects should be disabled for layers
- Hot reloading mostly works but needs some extra work
- Add a "Extract as a custom object ("prefab")" when selecting instances in a scene.
- Ensure physics and pathfinding behaviors work properly.
- New expressions to translate coordinates from the parent to the local custom object.
- Ensure deletion of a custom object is gracefully handled by the editor
👥 New interface for teachers to manage students and other teachers
Administrators and teachers having a GDevelop for Education subscription can now create new anonymous accounts for students, invite new teachers and enable or disable user accounts.
Read more about administration of student/teachers on the documentation page.

- When using a mouse, the middle click can be used to pan the view when painting on a Tilemap.
- Allow custom objects ("prefabs") to use the anchor behavior on their children.
-

💝 Improvements
- Add "Quick Customization" in the Get Started page: choose a starter game and quickly replace objects and tweak their behaviors. The game is then automatically published so it can be shared: this is perfect for new users to get a taste of how a game works and make their own remix of a game before going further.

- Add an option in objects context menu to quickly swap assets of Sprites and 3D models, using the asset store:
- This is perfect for quickly prototyping or trying new game art,
- Animation of the object that are missing in the asset are replaced by a copy of the 1st asset animation. 3D model volume is adjusted to stay the same while keeping asset proportions.
- Allow hot-reloading of 3D models (Thanks @arthuro555!)

🖌️ Build your 2D levels with tiles (Tilemaps) directly inside GDevelop
A new, built-in Tilemap object is now available in GDevelop. It's perfect to quickly build levels with tiles, without leaving GDevelop or requiring setup from an external editor. Tilemaps are quick to render and perfect for displaying big levels without losing in performance.
You can directly configure it with an image (called Tileset, or Atlas), drag it on the scene then paint tiles after selecting one in the properties panel. You can also define which tiles are "solid" so that they are considered as a platform if you use the "Platform" behavior (or Collision conditions).

Read more on the Tilemap documentation page.
This is a new feature that will be improved in the future: open-source contributors are welcome to add tools (flood fill, 9-patch rectangle), multiple tiles selection for painting or auto-tiling.
🎮 Multiplayer improvements
- Lobby start is now more reliable (will wait for everyone to be connected to the host to start the game) and faster. If a player can't connect, the game will still start after a bit of time.
- Lobbies can now be joined after the game is started, if defined as such in the lobbies section of the game dashboard (which will be on by default for new games). Actions & conditions to check when a new player joins are available if needed.

👪 Define and modify variable for Object Groups
Object Groups allow to share the same events for multiple objects. While it's convenient, using variables with groups was painful because variables had to be added to every single object of the group before they could be used.
You can now open the group and see the variables that are in common in all objects of the group. Adding a variable to a group will add the variable to all objects. Adding an object to an existing group will ensure all variables of the group are also applied on the object.

Finally, you can also now directly open group variables when editing an action or condition using a variable. This is convenient to quickly add a variable to a group while you're building your game logic. Read more on the documentation page about Object Groups.

🎮 Introducing support for Multiplayer games ("GDevelop Multiplayer" - experimental)
ℹ️ This is an experimental feature, which is still in a very early stage and will be improved fast in the short term.
GDevelop now supports building real-time multiplayer games. Watch the announcement video here. Multiplayer includes:
- Lobbies for your game and a user interface allowing players to start a new game,
- 2 to 8 players in each lobby,
- Built-in authentication for players to create an account and login to your game,
- Automatic choice of the host of the game,
- Automatic synchronization of players, depending on who is in charge of each object,
- Automatic synchronization of the rest of the game state: game objects, variables...
- Soon, automated compression to reduce bandwidth usage.
https://github.com/4ian/GDevelop/assets/1280130/c9b10aba-0ceb-4f76-a08f-d09e95b1de02
Building a multiplayer game works by using 1) the actions to display the lobbies for your game and 2) a new Multiplayer Object behavior, allowing to mark which objects are active in the game (players, projectiles, enemies, doors, etc.)
This video shows how to transform a static game with 2 objects in a multiplayer game in 1 minute:
https://github.com/4ian/GDevelop/assets/1280130/606b9bda-c3fc-4d8e-ae90-27644deb2b89
Servers are usually costly to set up and maintain for multiplayer games (from tens to thousands dollars a month for successful games). GDevelop Multiplayer is built so that it can scale from no players to multiple thousands playing to your game. Free accounts have one lobby available for the game with 4 players. With a silver, gold or pro account, your game will get unlimited lobbies so your game can work with any number of players. Gold and Pro memberships will get access to extra customization and monetisation options in the future.
Examples are available in the app to help you get started, you can also preview a few multiplayer games here:
- Platformer ArrowFight on gd.games
- The Squeal of Time on gd.games by @tristanbob.
Read more about multiplayer game creation on this page.
💾 Simplified variable actions/conditions, local variables and extension variables.
The variable system has been considerably revised to be even more simple to use and flexible:
- Global or scene variables of any type can now be used with a unique action and condition. For example, you don't need anymore to choose between an action to modify a scene or a global variable, as there is now a single action for it. In the action, both global and scene variables can be used. You also don't need to choose a different action for a number, text or boolean variable.
- It's now required to declare your variables: add them in the global or scene variables. You can open these when editing events too, so you don't lose much time in case your forgot to create one before working on an action or condition.
Declaring variables is useful for GDevelop to allow you to use them in expressions by just writing their names, and will allow GDevelop to warn you if you misspell a variable - avoiding bugs in your game.
GDevelop also now support local variables. Those have been designed to be used the events sheet only and should be used as disposable variables, available only inside the event where you add them (and inside the sub-events).
Finally, extensions now also support variables stored inside them. These variables can live for the duration of the game (in which case they are extension global variables) or of a scene (extension scene variables). Extension creators are encouraged to use them to store data that was previously stored in scene variables.
💝 Improvements
🔍 Diagnostic report
A "diagnostic report" will now be shown when a preview is launched and GDevelop detects problems in your event sheet. It will tell you if there are missing scene variables, object variables or behaviors.
This is especially useful if you use external events shared between several scenes - in which case a mistake, like for

✨ Instance properties panel rework
The instance properties panel of the scene editor has been reworked into a more compact and user-friendly panel. Read the documentation about this panel to learn everything that it offers.

💾 Autosave for Cloud projects
A new autosave feature is automatically enabled for Cloud projects:
- Cloud projects are now autosaved on each game preview. Should the editor crash, it will help recover your project.
- The saved project is stored on the device for performance reasons.
Warning
If you're using GDevelop online on a public computer, this feature saves a copy of your project in the browser storage. To make sure no one can access it, make sure to log out the editor when you leave the computer.
💝 Improvements
- Use new icons for variable parameters in events

⚙️ Developer tools
- Add clearCanvas flag to RuntimeScene for multi-scene rendering support (Thanks @malec-palec!)
- This prop is passed to PIXI.
Renderer.render as clear option to support multi-scene rendering.

- This allows to use emojis, accented characters, CJK languages and any word from any language to name anything in GDevelop.
This should be very useful for Non-English speaking users.
- As this is still experimental, this must be activated in the preferences of GDevelop.
This will be activated by default once this is proven to work without bugs.
- Cloud projects are now autosaved on each game preview.
Should the editor crash, it will help recover your project.
- The saved project is stored on the device for performance reasons.
Simplified list of actions/conditions (no more duplicated actions/conditions that are in common between objects)
- Actions, conditions and expressions related to opacity, size (width/height), scale, animations and other common features are now visible only once when you search for them in actions/conditions (instead of being shown once for every type of object supporting them).
This reduces the risk of confusion for new or existing users, notably when multiple versions of the same action were returned by the search and was making it difficult to choose the proper one.
- Internally, this works thanks to default, built-in behaviors that are supported by the objects.
💝 Improvements
- Improvements for 3D:
- When resizing a 3D object with Shift pressed (or when resizing multiple objects), the depth of the object is also scaled proportionally This will make the authoring of 3D levels easier.
- Add a default 3D light on any new layer (this won't affect performance for 2D games).
- UX improvements:
- At project opening, reopen the tabs that were opened when it was closed.
- The editor will now automatically fix object, group, function, behavior, or property names when an incorrect one is entered - instead of displaying an error message and losing the name that was entered.
Same for scenes, external events, external layouts and extension names in the project manager.
- Improve asset store with asset pack search, filters and navigation.
- Simplify the context menus in the Events Sheet.
Also display shortcuts for the most used commands, both in the menus and in the toolbar.
- Simplify confirmation of deletion of leaderboards by asking to type "delete" instead of the full leaderboard name.
- Filter autocompleted tags according to community visibility setting.
This avoids to show tags that gives no results.
- Allow JavaScript extensions to use resource parameters.
- Deprecate actions that uses an expression for resources (instead, a field will be shown to select a resource, like in an object).
- Move some Tween actions in "Size" and "Visibility" groups.
- Improved autocompletions of behavior functions on object in expressions: the behavior icon is now shown.
- Add a shortcut (Cmd/Ctrl+G) to move selected events in a new group

- If the score is being sent, the leaderboard will wait for it to be sent before showing the leaderboard.
- Important change: a player name can now be empty when a score is sent.
In this case, the leaderboard will auto-generate a name.
- Leaderboard administration was improved to allow to customise the prefix used to generate automatically player names (when no name is entered by the player).
You can also now choose to disallow any custom player name to prevent abuse (in this case, all non-connected player names will be auto-generated)
- Allow to use custom CSS to fully customize the leaderboard.
