3D characters such as knights, soldiers and monsters have been added.

Equipment and motions for spears and bows have been added. In addition to sword fights, it is now possible to perform actions such as thrusting with a spear and shooting a bow.

2D objects were also added. More types of buttons and gauges, character icons, and text that can be displayed at the end of the game such as “YOU WIN!” and “GAME OVER” have been added.

2. Dialog for editing button text

A dialog box has been added for editing text to be displayed on buttons, speech bubbles, etc. Long press a button or speech bubble in the Scene Editing screen to show the dialog.

3. Enhancement for micro:bit connection

Blocks for I2C communication have been added.

* I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) is a communication standard, a serial communication used mainly to connect devices over short distances.

Now you can send and receive the values of the ultrasonic sensor attached to TAMIYA’s microcomputer robot (crawler type) via the micro:bit with Mind Render, to make the crawler move while avoiding collisions with obstacles.

A sample program is available at Create > Connect with external > Let’s Connect to TAMIYA > 2. Move it with a game controller

Updated blocks for sending/receiving data to/from micro:bit pins.
