Don't miss out on the latest and greatest new features in Construct 3
Notes
We've added back the Scirra Arcade exporter, which you can use to publish games to the Scirra Arcade. As with C2, this exporter is also available in the Free Edition. We've also implemented the Windows 10 UWP exporter, which can also export to Xbox One, but this isn't currently available in the beta. However as with other subscriber features it'll be temporarily enabled during the Newgrounds gamejam!
The loading screen has had a fresh lick of paint from our designer Paulo. You may not see the new design immediately since we need to make a server-side change to ensure everyone sees it, but keep an eye out for it! In the mean time the loading screen will fall back to a slightly different design, which is just what it does when the server hasn't updated yet. We've also finally got round to updating the splash screen used for exported projects, so these now say "Powered by Construct 3" instead of using the old Construct 2 splash.
Finally there's a few bug fixes as usual, and we've also made a couple of performance related tweaks to optimise spritesheet memory usage and the UI in the mobile version of the Animations Editor.
