Other support includes improvements in the material system, DragonBones, and spine binary resource format. Check the full notes for all the improvements.

Qutoutiao Mini Games Support

We have also added support for Qutoutiao Mini Games. Qutoutiao is a well-known Chinese app that shares the news of the day and is owned by many users in Asia. It uses big data algorithms and cloud computing to recommend and provide users with content and services.

They have advanced the app to include mini games, and we now provide support to export your games onto their service from this current version.
