Mixel Maker Has been updated to version 1.1.0
Thanks to everyone who picked up Mixel Maker, and for the feedback! Version 1.1 adds the three things you asked for most:
• Your own items: give any thing in the player's pockets your own picture (any PNG or JPG; a see-through background looks best), or use your own MagicaVoxel (.vox) model for it. Imported voxel models now appear in the Things picture list under "Your models", and can be held and set down like any other prop.
• Your own music and sound effects: Things → "🎵 Your music & sounds" imports MP3, OGG or WAV files. Music can play in a story step, on the title screen, or loop as a place's background sound; sound effects play in a "Play a sound" step. Everything is packed inside your exported game.
• Roomier writing: text boxes now grow as you type, conversation lines and ending texts get proper text boxes, and the settings panel in Places can be dragged wider by its left edge (it remembers the width).
Also new:
• 👻 Ghost characters: tick "A ghost" on anyone in Cast and they become see-through, float, glow faintly and fade out towards the feet.
• 17 new props for old houses and mysteries: tea towel, glass marble, tin soldier, kite string, stepladder, matchbox, hair ribbon, porcelain doll, coat hanger, sheet music, hook pole, name tag, postcard, diary pages, music-box key, little keys, garden shears, and a phone used as a torch.
• Portraits can be painted from your own cast (Portrait and Family portrait pieces: "Paint from the cast").
• A kite piece, and many fixes.
Your existing projects open as before. Download the new version from your itch.io library.
