GameSalad version 0.8.0 released!

Publish to the Mac with GameSalad 0.8.0!

Publish to the Mac

In addition to publishing for the Web and iPhone, GameSalad users can now publish desktop executables for Mac. This feature comes standard with the $99 GameSalad Express membership, so existing Express users can publish Mac games right away — simply click the orange “Publish” button in GameSalad and select “Mac.”

To celebrate GameSalad’s newly expanded publishing capabilities, and to support the Global Game Jam taking place this weekend all over the world, we’re also opening up Mac publishing for FREE to all users through this Sunday, January 31. Be sure to drop us a line if you use GameSalad during the Global Game Jam!

“But wait,” I hear you asking, “won’t my small iPhone games look silly on a Mac?” Well, we also have…

New screen resolution options

In addition to GameSalad’s traditional 480×320 resolution (iPhone Landscape), you can choose among four new options allowing greater design flexibility and pristine graphics on larger screens.

320×480 (iPhone Portrait)
720×480 (GameSalad.com)
1024×768
1280×720 (HD)

Mac games also allow players to switch between windowed and fullscreen modes.

Improved Framerate

GameSalad’s performance has been further optimized for dramatically increased framerates. We experienced a 65% improvement in one of our iPhone benchmark games!
