The changelog for this version:
New file and folder commands added to AppGameKit!
This new version of AppGameKit brings many new features and a number of maintenance improvements and fixes. For some time the game development community have been asking for improved file and folder controls. Today we're able to satisfy that need with a host of new commands. We've also added a command so you can control vibration feedback on mobile devices.
There's a host of fixes and maintenance improvements. You can read the full change list here;
