- New Features, New Plugins, New Adventures
Official Development Roadmap
Since 2018, we have continuously developed, designed and shaped Game Launcher Creator into the powerhouse software it is today.
With the support from thousands of users around the world, we are able to work on new features every month and bring new updates and improvements to GLCV3. Here below, you will find the official development roadmap, so you know what we are working on and when to expect new features.
We highly encourage you to like our Facebook and Instagram pages for updates and also subscribe to our YouTube channel for updates and news.
Launcher Login System
A new Plugin and Open-Source PHP/SQL system.
The PHP membership system is open-source and will come as a “ready to use” boilerplate system, so you can expand upon it yourself should you want to.
The plugin will be available for use on all Editions of GLCV3, although we recommend Developer Edition to get the full potential.
Clone Page Feature
The ability to clone pages quickly inside the Game Launcher Creator V3 editor.
This feature is in very high demand. We are working through it. The reason it is not an easy-feat is because of the way we have written the editor system and project file format.
We need to be able to extensively write a LOT of code to implement this and then test, a LOT.
We will update accordingly.
Assets Library
Different from the “Launcher Library”, the Assets Library is a new feature we are going to implement which involves a new window or toolbar inside the editor which contains hundreds, if not thousands of free assets for users to browse through and simply drag and drop into their launchers.
We had this feature with V2 and we have a lot of assets we have already designed and licensed.
We will update accordingly.
More Events
Developer Edition users can enjoy the freedoms of creating even more professional launchers by diving into the Global Event system inside GLCV3.
This enables you to create custom actions and logic based off certain conditions or triggers being met inside your launcher. We aim to develop more of these to enable Devs to tap even further into their launcher developments.
We will update accordingly.
Patreon Plugin
The Patreon Plugin is a third party plugin we are helping develop with the developers to integrate into GLCV3.
It will be an optional plugin and will benefit Indie and Dev Edition users.
The plugin will enable you to sync your launcher up to your Patreon account so your followers can get access and you can limit access to certain pages depending on their role/pledge amount.
Discord Rich Presence
The Discord Rich Presence Plugin will be available as a standard feature of the Developer Edition of GLCV3.
It will also be available as an optional paid plugin for Gamer and Indie Developers.
With this feature/plugin, you will be able to show your launcher in a user’s profile when they’re using it and be able to show actionable data in a user’s profile too.
Newsticker
The newsticker feature will allow you to roll a newsticker across your launcher window with some customizable options.
You can either “feed” the newsticker with a local text file you ship with your launcher or you can opt to send a real-time online ticker feed.
With the online ticker feed, you can simply update the news on your server and it will instantly update.
Toast Notifications
Toast notifications are a feature of Indie and Developer Editions.
The toast feature allows you to send a toast message or notification to the user’s desktop.
Very useful for prompting the user when something has happened or just a toast message that looks pretty. There are several options related to the design and look of your toast messages.
