- I Wanna Maker is out of Early Access! (v1.0) - 9 November 2023
I Wanna Maker has reached v1.0 and is out of Early Access! Woo! With this v1.0 update, we've added a hand-crafted campaign mode with several worlds, Steam achievements which also unlock new player cosmetics, new options to visually enhance levels, and more! I Wanna Maker first started development at the end of 2016. We entered Early Access in February 2020. After 7 years of development, and over 240,000 levels made by players during Early Access, we're happy to officially release v1.0! Thank you to everyone who's been with us for a while, and hello to new players! Post-release Plans We decided to leave Early Access because we’ve implemented all the main features that were planned when the game was initially released. We will continue to work on the game after release, but the development will likely be slower. We’ll still be looking at adding highly requested features, fixes, etc. Chang…

- Multiple Room Update v0.90 out now! - 21 April 2023
Hey all, We're excited to bring you a very special feature update! This time around we're adding multiple unique rooms per level! This allows makers to add up to 15 rooms to a level, and connect them together with room warps. This should greatly open up the limits of what's possible to put into a single level! You can access rooms at the bottom of the Level Info tab. To go with the rooms feature, we're also adding a new Keycard object, which is a collectible that persists between saves. This should make it easier to save progress/state between different rooms. This update also adds persistent saves when playing levels, which gives the ability to leave a level and come back at any time to continue your progress. No need to worry about losing progress from leaving a long or challenging level! This works for both challenges and normal online levels. Note that speedrun times won't be shared…

Hey all, We're back with another feature update! This time we're adding some experimental random events to spice up your levels. We're seeing how this feature impacts level design in the game, and these events may be heavily modified or removed in the future depending on how testing goes. Furthermore, levels that are completely random whether you can clear the level or not will be manually reviewed and removed from challenges. This doesn't include levels where you are able to clear the level every attempt. Additionally, we're adding 4 new tilesets and 4 new spikes from the 2021 visuals contest, and adding the ability to use 2 different types of spikes per level.
