Hello Everyone,
Platform Builder 6.2.0 has been released on
GameJolt,
Itch.io and
Indieexpo, and will soon be available on Steam. I just wanted to give you a chance to try it out and make sure that everything is working nicely before I put it live on Steam.
Click here to see the update log.
Platform Builder Standard is free on these websites. If you own the DLC for Pro on Steam, then Platform Builder will run as Pro, so long as Steam is running in the background.
On a different note, Platform Builder Pro was removed from Steam and Itch.io, making it only available as a DLC on Steam, and is only available in version 5.3 to those who currently own the program on those websites. Hopefully by now, all Pro users have moved over.
As always, the
command prompt page has been updated to show all of the new Commands. There are quite a few new ones. Here is a brief overview:
- menu = [menu ID] - displays a custom menu
- pause menu = [menu ID] - Adds a custom menu to the pause menu
- exit - exits out of the command prompt.
