I'm thrilled to announce the new MAJOR UPDATE to my Data Management Addon Pack made for Construct 3
To thank everyone who already bought this pack, and after thinking a lot about how i could improve it as the best Data Management solution for any C3 project, here is what I came up with :
In my Roguelike, i've been using JSON+ Behaviors everywhere and keep improving their features to solve all the issues I've ever had regarding Data Management and to have the full power and flexibility that I needed in such a modular Game Project.
However DATA+ is meant to be a solution adapted to any project (from the most simple to the most complex) and to any C3 dev (from beginners to veterans), and I realized that JSON+ can be a bit overkill for some usecases. Indeed, in some situations Array and Dictionary are good enough. This is why I decided to create and release those 2 new Addon Behaviors : Array as Behavior, and Dictionary as Behavior.
This way you can attach as many Arrays and Dictionaries as you want directly as behavior on your Objects and Families ! No need to create a bunch of seperate Objects and painfully picking them
BUT THERE IS MORE :
Last week i was amazed by all the positive comments and messages I got from dozens of C3 devs on various channels (by mail, DM, on Discord and here). It's amazing to know those tools are already used by some devs for whom I have big respect and admiration, on some exciting games made currently made with this engine.
So I went ahead and released 2 Additional Plugins that i'm using in my game productions :
I hope you'll like this Big Data+ Update and those 2 new addons ! :)
