Project Cleaner for GameMaker Studio 2

Image
Every time you duplicate something in your project in GameMaker Studio 2, for some reason it keeps an unused copy of that asset’s metadata, if you duplicate this same asset again two unused copies will be kept, if you duplicate it once again you will be left with 3 copies and so on… you get where this is going, right? Doing this multiple times can make your project unnecessarily big, and since there are many small files, it can become a problem when importing / exporting your entire project when really needed. For this reason I made this application, it simply scans and removes all unused .yy files from your project. Here a comparison of how effective it can be depending on how big your project is: 63,8mb (22.683 files) -> 25,5mb (12.888 files) . ⬇️ Download & Source Code Be aware that this is the first release, I only tested it with my own projects, make a backup of yours before using it. Feedback is welcome. 💌
