New Version Out!
We're excited to share that a fresh and revamped version of our "Tower Defense" demo is now available in this update of 001 Game Creator! You might recall the previous version of this demo had some issues, but the current version has been completely overhauled with new, streamlined scripts and enhanced gameplay mechanics. Plus, the map now looks even more stunning! This updated demo is an excellent source of learning material and a great foundation if you're planning to develop a game in this genre. Additionally, we've increased the Android API version to 33 and fixed a quirky bug that has been lurking around for years, where selectable fields could affect the colors of other fields.
Highlights from Previous Updates
As you may recall, recently our Wiki received a massive update, adding two entire new sections dedicated to Events and Use Values, along with links to video tutorials and game recipes where applicable. This means you can access even more detailed and comprehensive information on 001 Game Creator's features and how to use them more effectively in your game design.
For those of you that haven't caught up in a while, the previous software update also included some sweet new features and fixes mainly related to DPI and how games are affected at different resolutions. Additionally the game and editor startup time has been improved, although this should be more noticeable on Android/iOS and HTML5.

Wiki Update Finally Here!
We're thrilled to announce that our wiki has received a major update, making it now way more detailed and comprehensive than ever before. Specifically, it now has two additional sections dedicated entirely to Events and Use Values. Each and every single one of them is a separate entry on the wiki. Some entries acquired links to other entries which are directly related or similar to others, and some have additional notes. A lot of them even have links to our video tutorials or game recipes where applicable, so that users can quickly see how an event or use value that they're interested in knowing more about is utilized.
In case you missed our past releases, there have been quite a few changes and additions implemented, including a recent hotfix which addressed a few pesky issues that our users reported.
Specifically, the DPI awareness during game testing has been reverted due to debugger issues at higher ratios, and an "Upscale windows using system DPI" game setting has been added, which will now offer editor-like scaling to built games. The game and editor startup time has been improved (more noticeable on Android/iOS and HTML5), restorative items now work properly in the MMORPG DLC, and a visual issue with equipment displaying double stat increases in MMORPG DLC has been fixed.
The other updates featured the all-important implementation of HTTPS support (both for Windows and Android!) for the "Query Webpage" event. 001's Android API version has increased to 31 in order to comply with the new Google Play Store requirements, a "Smooth Scaling" option has been added to font resources to be able to turn off anti-aliasing in situations where it is not desired, as well as a "Change Rain/Cloud Scale" map event and use value to be able to control weather easier through script. Moreover there've been a few full-screen features implemented and the overall experience of the full-screen functionality has been greatly improved.
We're very excited to tell you that we have started dropping teasers of our new project on our Patreon. Currently, more than 5 have already made their appearance, each showing more and more of what this brand new project of ours is capable of, with many more coming in the very near future.

DPI Fixes & Loading Improvements
In our previous update we made it so that 001 games during play-testing were DPI aware, meaning they were rendering at the true resolution as specified in the Game's Settings regardless of what the user's Windows DPI scaling was set to. However, due to a few of our users reporting some issues at higher ratios, we made it an option you can toggle in the Game's Settings. Note this feature only impacts built games at this time. We also managed to modestly improve game and editor startup times which should be more noticeable on Android/iOS and HTML5 games specifically.
As always, we appreciate the continued support and feedback that we receive from both the community and our Patreon members. You can view the full list of changes for the newest update and the previous ones from the changelog below: https://001gamecreator.com/changes/

A HUGE Reveal Approaches
Keep your eyes peeled and your inboxes refreshed, because something big is going to start showing up on our Patreon VERY soon. For those of you who are in the loop, yes this is indeed about our "Super Secret" project that's been in the works for YEARS, and whose existence we've been teasing for a while now. If you'd like to be among the first ones to witness it AND receive some sweet upcoming Patreon exclusive benefits, now would be a great time to sign up! https://www.patreon.com/softweir
New Release!
The change log of this new version is incredibly big with 40 great changes, featuring a wide assortment of additions, enhancements and bug fixes. Let's dive right in and break down some of the best parts of this update!
The spotlight definitely shines on the critical addition of the HTTPS support (both Windows and Android!) for the "Query Webpage" event. This will open up so many exciting new possibilities for projects such as IAPs, using online services, accessing web APIs and so much more! (Please note HTTPS support will come to iOS at a later time). Moreover, we've updated 001's Android API version, increasing it to 31 in order to comply with the new Google Play Store requirements. While we're on the topic, we also fixed some issues around Android. Namely not being able to build for said OS when the name of a project contained UNICODE characters, or a whacky behavior with random numbers that caused occasional higher values than expected and potential crashes (HTML5 too), controls being lost on Android/iOS when testing through the app launcher, and we made Android build work without legacy command line tools. A "Smooth Scaling" option has been added to font resources to be able to turn off anti-aliasing in situations where it is not desired, and we also added a "Change Rain/Cloud Scale" map event and use value to be able to control density, speed and scale of rain and clouds easier through script. And last but not least, a long-awaited feature has made its way in 001 Game Creator, which is the ability to toggle between windowed mode and full-screen via event. To complement this addition, support for Alt+Enter was also added, which is essentially a well-known short-cut that accomplishes the same thing! Furthermore, many issues relating to the full-screen functionality and various resolutions in general were also ironed out, providing now a much smoother experience across different resolutions.
Compared to previous versions, you can expect way less issues both in the editor as well as your existing games! We made actor collisions more consistent, Field related fixes were issued such as the field text line spacing not stretching to accommodate changed font sizes, and the Typewriter/Fade effect not refreshing after a field value changed. We also received numerous reports concerning tearing of certain terraformation pieces so we addressed that, in addition to another tile-set related issue which caused tile previews in the map editor to offset in front view. Some crashes that occurred when a weapon with a deleted body sprite set was fired, or when displaying text had a partial color indicator character. Other fixes include stuttering issues with actors moving on the Z-axis when a map floor boundary was enabled; the "Holding Point X/Y/Z Position/Rotation" use values from not taking animation into account; networking and hashing functions on certain languages of Windows... and SO much more!

Hope everyone's year is starting off spectacularly!
2022 has been a very uplifting and prosperous year as we have taken several huge steps for 001 Game Creator and other related projects as well. We reflect on those grand moments of advancements, and we list them all here in this End-of-Year review.
At the beginning of that year, we announced the beginning of a new video tutorial series dedicated entirely to covering Resources! Explaining the different types among them, providing a step-by-step breakdown on what each of them does, and how they can be utilized in 001 Game Creator games.
Later in April, we launched a HUGE new version of 001 Game Creator which featured numerous bug fixes, improved the engine's overall performance and included a wide assortment of new features! One such noteworthy grand addition was definitely the advanced lighting demo. An example project which highlighted a variety of spectacular lighting effects used in a 3D scene, allowing users to check out how they work so they could then implement them into their own projects too.
In May, we hosted our very first Screenshot Contest, where users making a game in 001 Game Creator could participate in it for a chance to win a cash prize or any 001 DLC of their choosing. To enter, they would capture moments of a game of theirs, and post them on our Discord server. By the end of the month we ended up receiving so many gorgeous and creative screenshots of people's amazing works, that it became quite difficult to pick out the winners!
Eventually, these 3 individuals managed to make it to the top. Below we list their names, place and the screenshot that earned their win.
First Place: Isac4508 Second Place: Amy Febryan Third Place: Elric Murphy
During August, the Steam arrival of our side-project Easy Game Creator, a derivation of 001 Game Creator, was announced for the very first time. A game creation tool catering to people who are interested in making a game without having to deal with any programming jargon or spend much time on it. You pick a template, fill out a short questionnaire, then the game has been made for you! Then you can easily share it with anyone to play on any device via a private link.
Moving on to Autumn, we revealed a brand new video tutorial series about video renditions of our existing Game Recipes, with the first one covering our very first recipe which explains how to create a functional flashlight/torch that follows the player. Since this is something new we've started doing, we appreciate any feedback you have on it!
During this time a lot of exciting stuff happened! Easy Game Creator was officially released on Steam under early access, our first video game recipe went public, and a gigantic wiki update which was being hinted at in a few announcements was finally available for our Patreon supporters to fully witness.
This absolutely massive update featured the Events and Use Values wiki pages having separate entries for all Events and Use Values! Moreover, we linked video tutorials and game recipes where applicable, so that users can quickly see how an event or use value that they're interested in knowing more about is utilized. And even more than that, entries acquired links to other entries which are directly related or similar to others. For example, the event "Change Invincibility" links to its respective use value, as well as the events "Change Existence", "Change Solid", "Change Invisibility"; since all of those Actor events perform actions of similar nature.
Additionally, a critical new beta version of 001 Game Creator became available to our patrons that added incredibly useful features like the "Smooth Scaling" option to font resources, an increased Android API version to 31... And of course the long awaited HTTPS support which essentially brings along a plethora of new possibilities such as using online services, web/app integrations, IAPs, being able to access all sorts of web APIs such as Twitch, Steam Web API, etc.
Later in December, we announced our SoftWeir Video Game Design Workbook, a physical book available for pre-ordering. Featuring 156 pages packed with various premium resources comprising of multiple worksheets, explanations and tools to help get people started in planning their next big project! Ranging from checklists, to tips & tricks by real game developers, and even an organized and dedicated space to draw and take notes in... all in all, it's a project management method that combines portability, ease-of-use on top of being fun as well!
We also released our STEM Course E-Books covering the Basics and Resources, along with our new SoftWeir Game Design Worksheets as DLCs for 001 Game Creator! These e-books contain a plethora of useful resources in the form of PDFs that you can use to master the basics of 001 Game Creator or learn and polish more advanced topics. Along with included quizzes that also come with answer sheets, so you can be sure you've definitely got the hang of your new-found knowledge and skills! On the other hand, the game design worksheets as great way for project-planning. Featuring multiple worksheets, detailed comprehensive explanations, tips & tricks by real game developers and more! Incredibly useful whether you keep them digital or actually print them out and fill them in with a pen.
Only a few weeks ago another beta update made its way on our Patreon, with big improvements concerning the behavior of the full-screen function, Alt+Enter support for toggling full-screen mode, as well as a very old requested feature that is the ability to switch from full-screen to windowed and vise-versa via script. Thanks to the addition of the "Change Fullscreen Mode" event this is now possible to implement!
Recently we've also made our debut on 3 more major platforms. Namely Mastodon, TikTok and Snapchat; so consider giving us a follow if you're using any of them yourself and would like to see more content.
And lastly, it's also worth mentioning that all those feature-rich beta versions you just read about will be coming out to the public soon, so keep your eyes peeled and your Steam clients refreshed!
Thank you for your support!
Whew, what a year this has been! And we can tell you this is going to amount to so little compared to what 2023 has in store both for us AND for you! Lots more stuff to come for both 001 Game Creator and Easy Game Creator! ...And for those of you who are in the loop... Yes, our "Super Secret" project that we've been working on for years will finally be coming to light this year so stay tuned! You definitely will NOT want to miss it!
In closing, we would like to wholeheartedly extend a very big "Thank you!" to all of our supporters! All of this and more would not have been possible if it weren't for the amazing support that we've been receiving from our Patreon members, our translators and the community as a whole! All of your feedback helped us to improve our products and services throughout the years. As such, thank you! We hope the community and Patreon members grow to the point when we can release webinars in the future!
On behalf of everyone on the whole team, we wish you a Happy New Year! Thank you for your dedicated support, and we hope to see more amazing projects from you in 2023 (we know you'll see from us)!
We'd like to send to all of you and your families our warmest Christmas wishes! We sincerely hope you have a very cozy and unforgettable Christmas this year with lots of fun and laughter...and food!

Easy Game Creator soon on Steam!
We are extremely excited to announce that a project we released last year is finally making its way on Steam! Easy Game Creator, is a derivation of 001 Game Creator which allows anyone with a mouse and keyboard to create a video game to share with friends and family.
What makes it different from other game engines is its ability to produce a complete game from a set of given templates in MINUTES! That's right, minutes! All the user has to do is pick a template, fill out a short questionnaire, then the game has been made for you! Games are easily shareable with anyone to play on any device via a private link.
Please keep in mind that each purchase of Easy Game Creator comes with 2 export licenses for a game. After they are used up, you will have to repurchase the software in order to be able to export again.
To get notified when Easy Game Creator is available on steam, be sure to add it to your wishlist:
