Update - "Weekly" Releases

Since mid-2015, we've been issuing more frequent public releases, roughly once a week. We believe that this is more beneficial than holding back on a larger, named release for several months. For this reason, what you are getting is in fact Stencyl 3.4 in practice, even if it isn't called such.

Keep checking back for updates.

Release History

================

Stencyl 3.3 is a nuts-and-bolts kind of release where we've focused on bug fixes and improvements versus adding new features. Those hoping for some improvements in our Design Mode will be pleased with the improvements we've made to its usability and performance.

All Changes


Highlights

64-bit iOS Games
Apple is now requiring all games to be built as 64-bit apps.

Google Purchases v3
Support for the latest version of Google's in-app purchases service.

Improvements to Design Mode
Improved Performance. Drag Block to Palette to delete it. Find Block in behaviors. Hover block over event pane to navigate to another event.

100+ Bug Fixes
We've focused on making a stabler, more enjoyable experience. See what's been fixed.


Gotchas

1) You must fully uninstall Stencyl before installing 3.3. Alternatively, you can install to a different folder if you prefer. If you don't heed this warning, you'll run into a lot of inexplicable bugs.

2) If the app appears inoperable, consider upgrading your version of Java. (Thanks emf715!)

Works great! Make sure you have updated Java through the System Preferences panel if you're on a Mac.

I can confirm that upgrading from Java 7 to Java 8 will resolve some issues on a Mac - such as "Unexpected Problem"  when changing Opacity & Blend Modes in the scene editor.

Great update. Thanks!

I'm still on 3.1. If I install 3.3, will it delete all my extensions again?


And will it save games to the C:\\ folder even if I asked it to install to E:\\

Install folder is not the same as the workspace folder. I install in D but games get saved in C because I use the default workspace folder.
