    • RE: New FX Sound Behaviour?

      @NeilSenn Thank you! We absolutely love hearing this! 🙌

      Pitch variation is such a tiny tweak with a huge payoff, makes everything feel more alive. And yes! Instant testing with no compile time is a total game-changer. So glad you're getting the most out of it! 🎧✨ Do show us some of your WIPs with these behaviours.

      And let us know if we should share more audio tips or examples for pitch/randomization :)

      @KrystalYee Appreciate the feature update. Truth be told I rarely pay attention. A two iPad setup with customizable voice commands could get rather interesting. Seeing the new external storage capabilities makes me think I'll be building an asset library as time goes on.
      Really cool, thanks!

      Glad you liked the update! Totally hear you, this new update could really open up some awesome creative possibilities! Can’t wait to see what cool games you build.

    • WWDC26 Announcements for iPadOS26!

      Just wrapped up WWDC25, and iPadOS 26 is looking like a massive win for anyone building games on iPad—especially if you’re using hyperPad.

      1213f112-a50f-48ef-9676-203dae845f90-image.png

      Here's a full summary of what’s new and why it matters for mobile game creators 👇

      🧠 Smarter Multitasking

      Split View + Stage Manager have finally matured—meaning smoother project switching, better reference setups, and a much more stable environment for full creative workflows.

      Screenshot 2025-06-10 at 11.38.07 AM.png

      🎨 Customizable Control Center

      Now you can add tools you actually use—like shortcuts to screen recording, screenshots, or even your most-used hyperPad projects. This is especially useful for teachers, students, and streamers who show their dev process.

      📁 Upgraded Files App

      Finally, asset management gets serious:

      • Native support for external drives

      • Bulk rename

      • Drag & drop that feels right

      Perfect for working with large audio libraries, sprite sheets, or full iOS game builds.

      e8a45026-161b-4e2c-882a-75fd8b538ea5-image.png

      ⚡️ Background Tasks

      iPadOS 26 unlocks the ability to run computationally intensive processes in the background—like exporting builds, processing audio, or generating logic-heavy systems.

      Now you can multitask freely without stopping your workflow. Big time-saver for complex games.

      a2024755-0dab-402e-9aac-91c308266910-image.png

      ✏️ Apple Pencil Enhancements

      Drawing on iPad just got a major upgrade. More pressure sensitivity and lower latency make it feel even closer to pen on paper.

      Perfect for sprite art, UI design, or hand-drawn cutscenes made right inside your dev flow.

      cdb6c13e-1c47-41b1-be3c-2d6676d0ef65-image.png

      🧭 Mac-Style Menu Bar

      Swipe or tap to bring up a system-level command bar—just like macOS.

      Quick access to preview mode, asset tools, or control layers now feels more like a pro-grade dev setup.

      e1795de6-28ca-4954-9a6c-bed85c38b0c5-image.png

      ⚡️ Bonus Upgrades You’ll Love

      🎮 Game Mode 2.0

      iPadOS 26 improves Game Mode for M-series iPads:

      • Lower input latency

      • Fewer background distractions

      This directly impacts hyperPad previews and exports—making gameplay smoother and dev cycles faster.

      🔊 System-Wide Voice Shortcuts

      Use voice commands like “Start my game project” to auto-launch hyperPad and load your build. Combine it with gestures to build a real creative flow state.

      🎮 Game Mode 2.0

      For M-series iPads, Game Mode just got better: lower latency and fewer background distractions = smoother previews and faster exports for your games.

      🎨 Icon Composer (macOS 15)

      New tool for designing app icons across Apple platforms—with dynamic previews that match iOS’s system style. Great for polishing your hyperPad game’s look.

      TL;DR

      More speed, deeper personalization, better multitasking, and smarter tools = the best game dev experience yet on iPad.

      Great for Apple students, indie devs, or teachers, this update is a huge step forward!

    • RE: 2025 DevLogs

      ✅ Confirmed in the Next Update — Revamped Audio System

      The next update will include the reworked audio system! All features mentioned previously will be available in the next update with the addition of new capabilities:

      • You can now perfectly loop sound effects in the Play Sound behavior. When Loop is enabled, you can define how many times it repeats before completing.

      • Sound effects have a priority field. When the audio engine is handling too many sound effects (or it's stuttering), it will drop sound effects with the lowest priority first. Use this to prioritize playback of important sound effects.

      • Sounds are preloaded, so there's no longer any lag when playing sound effects for the first time.

      • The Play Music behavior will have the ability to preload audio tracks too. If disabled, it will load the track before playback occurs (without lagging).

      • Music can also be persistent between scenes. When enabled in Play Music, music will not be interrupted when loading another scene.

      • Preloading scenes and overlays no longer interrupts audio.

    • RE: 2025 DevLogs

      ✅ Confirmed in the Next Update — "Touch Anywhere" Toggle in Touch Behaviors

      In Started Touching, While Touching and Stopped Touching behaviors, there will be a new Touch Anywhere toggle.

      When enabled, you can trigger the behavior when touching anywhere on the screen (unless if you touch an object with touch behaviors). You no longer have to put a thicc object behind the scene to have touches recognized everywhere.
