Orx - Portable Game Engine version 1.14 has been released
<p>The Orx community is pleased to announce the 1.14 release. This marks the 14th yearly major release since 1.0 in 2009. <br>There are quite a few changes in this release. Here are some highlights:</p><ul><li><code>Bundle</code>, a new extension that can automatically discover and pack all your game resources, either inside separate binary packages or directly within your game’s executable.<br>The <code>Bundle</code> extension is designed to be efficient, being more performant than using many separate small files, cf. <a href=https://discord.com/channels/522167736823185418/717482097207672843/1103761922215661749 rel="noopener noreferrer" target=_blank>https://discord.com/channels/522167736823185418/717482097207672843/1103761922215661749</a>. It also supports compression, encryption, filters and is fully customizable.</li><li>Lot of work was made on the Android plugins and its build system. The latter has been completely revamped and should be working out-of-the-box in all cases.</li><li>The <code>core</code> clock can now be prevented from going to sleep as a trade-off between CPU usage and the eradication of potential micro-stutters that could happen under some circumstances.</li><li>Custom commands can now be run on spawned objects, thanks to the new Spawner config property <code>OnSpawn</code>.</li><li>Build type (release, debug, profile), CPU, platform and other system properties can now be queried at runtime either through the config system or with a command.</li><li>The config include directive now supports an optional condition.</li><li>A ton of quality of life improvements and a handful of API/event refactoring.</li></ul><p>The complete list of changes can be found here: <a href=https://github.com/orx/orx/blob/master/CHANGELOG rel="noopener noreferrer" target=_blank>https://github.com/orx/orx/blob/master/CHANGELOG.</a></p><p>The up to date development version is recommended and is located at: <a href=https://github.com/orx/orx rel="noopener noreferrer" target=_blank>https://github.com/orx/orx</a>.
