Notes
New this release: we've added an exciting new 3D shape plugin! This allows using basic 3D in your projects, such as a cube, wedge or pyramid shape, with an image for each face. We previously posted a teaser video of this feature on April 1st - and it's not a joke, it's a real feature you can now try in this release! The video will give you a brief overview of how it works and what you can do with it. In short, you can choose between a few pre-defined shapes, adjust the height of the shape, and move it up and down on the Z axis using the Z elevation feature (much like you can already with sprites). Gameplay, such as collisions, continues to work in 2D - the 3D part is purely cosmetic, but still a great new way to add impressive visual effects to your game. We can't wait to see what you can make with this!
Other updates in this release includes more new examples, a few bug fixes and other adjustments, and a few scripting improvements including adding script interfaces for the Sine and Pahtfinding behaviors. As ever these will be fully documented at the next stable release, but you can explore the APIs before then by inspecting them in browser dev tools. Stay tuned for more updates!
