Version 0.7.0 is here! with a completely revamped interface, new features and improvements. Highlights A new user interface Completely revamped UI, designed to better match Discord’s app style. The main reason I made this new interface was to improve user experience while keeping it visually clean and simple to use. 🍇 Now the main layout is separated into 3 tabs: platform , details and title with step-by-step style, but it you can still jump directly to any tab you want by simply clicking on their icon. There’s a new status bar on the upper left corner, it displays your connection status, applied settings, and warns you when any critical error occurs.

UniMaker DX source code is now public!

The source code for UniMaker DX (the version with the pixel art UI) is now available on my GitHub : https://github.com/ninstar/UniMaker Since I started the transition to UniStudio some people have asked me if I would make the source code for UniMaker DX public, as it is considerably different from UniStudio and previous versions. I said that I would eventually do, so here we are. 🎵 I haven’t done this sooner because I didn’t have enough free time to go through my entire commit history (which is pretty huge if you ask me). 💦 As this is just the source code, keep in mind that it is not meant for most users. In addition to that, the link above does not include the source code for UniStudio, it is still being worked on its own repository. UniMaker 1.S is still the latest stable version. It is preferable that you use that version to create and share your courses.

The people behind the project First of all, I must say that this was only made possible thanks to the incredible work done by Clownacy in porting the source code of the Sonic Mania decompilation to the Wii U, as well as Rubberduckycoly and MGRich for making the decompilation project. You can check the source code on GitHub . It is worth noting that there is also another port being made by Radfordhound , his port is going to bring GX2 rendering, which should fix the lag on Special Stages, and support for more controllers. You can see more on his Twitter profile. In the meantime, a fun weekend project: I ported the absolutely incredible decompilation of Sonic ...
