Notes
In this release you'll quickly notice a major update: there is now a completely redesigned Start Page! This makes it quicker and easier to see and access your recent projects. There's also lots of links to help new users get started and encourage activity in the community, as well as the usual options to create a new project or open an existing one.
The Start Page now only shows a selection of three example projects. This is because the other big update is the example projects have been moved to their own dedicated Example Browser! Construct now comes with over 260 examples - many of them thanks to our partners at Viridino Studios - and the previous categories and list on the old Start Page was becoming unweildly. The new Example Browser has a better designed list showing much more content, and also now provides much more sophisticated filtering options to help you find what you want. This even includes filtering by the plugins, behaviors and effects that the projects use! For example you can list all beginner-level platformers, or game templates using the Tween behavior. We hope this helps you explore all the great content that you can find right inside Construct. The new Start Page and Example Browser were designed by Paulo Ricardo Reinehr who we think has done a fantastic job on both.
Other than that this release adds four new examples which you can find nicely organised in the new Example Browser (also in the 'New' category). There are also a few usability improvements, and as ever some bug fixes. Happy testing!
