GB Studio 4 now available!

It’s been a really long time since the last update, but GB Studio 4 is here, and it’s worth the wait!
GB Studio 4 introduces a new debugger, allowing you to inspect and pause your scripts, change values of variables on the fly and gain insight into where video memory is being used.
There’s also a new “Color Only” mode, allowing you to double the amount of memory available for sprite and background data. Then there’s automatic palettes, allowing you to supply color background .pngs directly. There’s support for replacing background tiles, for organising your scenes into folders, for running natively on Apple Silicon, loads of quality of life improvements and so much more.
The full changelog is available at github.com/chr...
If you spot any problems, please make sure to report an issue at github.com/chr...

[@ruegenthedragon]

[@londiebrondie]

So the color only mode basically DOUBLES the amount of power you have.... 🔥🔥🔥

[@Pfisterus]

This is the best announcement of the summer!!

[@Pfisterus]

Who made this amazing music used for GB Studio videos? I want to listen to it on reprint all day

[@slimehunter84]

This is a huge accomplishment, and going to result in so many more amazing new GB games. Woo! 🥳

[@compuowl]

GB Studio is nothing short of a great service rendered unto all of humanity

[@samleeke8322]

So excited to make a Gameboy Color version of my N64 game!

[@ericdanielski4802]

Absolutely nice.

[@Bluhbear]

Replacing BG tiles is in? 👀
I am once again hyped.

[@Sir_Bone-Head]

Always impressed and interested to see how much more gets added to this program, I love it.

[@ChunkySteveo]

Huge release!

[@ericdanielski4802]

Absolutely.

[@ClarkKentai]

I haven't even installed or played around with it yet, but it means the world to me that you made 32-bit versions.

[@megastkgames]

Incredible work, fantastic engine. Made a few small projects, its a really easy, intuitive game engine. Definitely worth for any indie dev or retrogamer with neat ideas to try.

[@pixelverse48]

I’m so excited!

[@xCrossBite]

GRACIAS! ❤

[@pnvgordinho]

Thank you.

[@erik19borgnia]

OH. MY. GOD.

[@kioly_ah]

非常感谢

[@nateKitsura]

have you thought about making an internal tilemap maker?

[@VectorDragonVect]

Infatti! Sarebbe il top.

[@roastB]

Yeah, it’s definitely a feature I want to add

[@nateKitsura]

@@roastB YES! that would be awesome! and maybe even an internal tool to draw tiles, sprites etc so that you don't have to rely on external tools.
thank you so much for all the work you do!

[@Vulpas]

​@@roastB What about an RPG mode? Kinda like the other genre templates supported.

[@Vulpas]

Are there any new genre templates? Been hoping for RPGs forever.

[@canibalcorps]

😍

[@TimSamoff]

🎉🎉🎉

[@bobalinx8762]

Since GB Studio games can be exported as actual GB(C) games, would it be possible to make games for cartridges with larger size capacity, as games like Pokémon made use of more memory than other games?

[@DecaTilde]

I'm trying to develop an error message for non-color handhelds that are trying to play color only games. How do you do that?

[@Godot-Game-Dev]

One thing that I think would be very nice is a way to write the code in a simple python like language because I find visual coding stuff to be quite confusing and I think I would be able to implement slightly more complex behavior, even with all of the same functions.

[@r1ksouza]

isso não seria bom , para quem não entende muito de código!

[@Godot-Game-Dev]

@@r1ksouza Yeah but as an option for more experienced people I think it might be good

[@Sammy2025Studios]

We need the gameboy monochrome to make expand the memory so it won't get laggy OK?

[@frostluigi9622]

Will platformer+ still work?

[@PearacidicGames]

It does, yes!

[@EduardaSilvaAndrade]

so you can know how to produce the mobile version of the application you created called GB Studio

[@ShaheenAlJuwaiser]

Hey bro i downloaded gb studio but it wont creat for some reason i press the create button but it wont do anything do you know how to fix this issue please 🙏

[@r1ksouza]

no futuro ele poderá exportar para android e ios?

[@natlee36]

I downloaded it, tried to change scene size and/or add any object, I failed
i guess game dev isn't my path lmao
