Version 1.1.0 is the first major update to ACTION GAME MAKER.
This patch introduces a revamped Visual Script UI, an upgrade to Godot 4.4.1, and the re-release of the trial version.

🔥 Major Updates

• Visual Script UI Overhaul

  • Previously, scripts flowed only from left to right, but now you can freely connect nodes in all directions (up/down/left/right).

  • You can now create multiple links between the same states.

  • Link connection points can now be freely moved.

• Godot Engine Upgrade (4.3.2 → 4.4.1)

  • You can now access new Godot 4.4.1 features, including running the game inside the editor and UID-based scene references.

  • The “Generate Object” and similar actions now use UIDs instead of string paths to refer to scenes.

  • This ensures links remain valid even if the scene files are moved in the file system.

  • For full details, refer to the official Godot 4.4.1 release notes.

• We have released a new tutorial, “Getting Started with ACTION GAME MAKER from Zero”.

  • This tutorial is designed to help even those with no prior game development knowledge create an action shooting game.

  • We have also updated the “Tutorial” button in the launcher to redirect to this new tutorial.

  • The previous tutorial project is now redistributed as a sample project.
