It's been over a year since the last major update but I hope it's been worth the wait!

GB Studio 4.2.0 includes over 180 changes, improvements, new features, and bug fixes, making it the biggest release so far.

Highlights include:

• A new Plugin Manager making it easier than ever to discover, install, and keep plugins up to date.
• A complete rewrite of the Platformer scene type, heavily based on Platformer Plus, with features like dashing, double jump, wall jumps, coyote time, fall-through platforms, and more.
• An improved Adventure scene type with more configuration, solid actors support and rounded corner tiles.
• Camera bounds and backtracking control, enabling features like preventing backward scrolling in platformers.
• Linux ARM support, so you can now run GB Studio on Raspberry Pi.
• Lots of game engine optimisations, reducing slowdown.

And so much more!

A massive thank you to everyone who contributed code, tested the betas, shared feedback, and supported GB Studio on Patreon!
