Changelog

v0.0.3 - 2025-XX-XX

Added

  • GameManager.TryDeserializeValue, GameManager.TrySerializeValue, GameManager.TryDeserializeStream and GameManager.TrySerializeStream methods, these can be used to serialize and deserialize data using internal GameManager serialization utilities. You can customize this via ISerializer interface (see CreateSerializer method on GameManager).
  • GameManager.DeleteDataAsync which can be used to delete data asynchronously.
  • GameManager.ReadResourceAsync and GameManager.ReadResourceStreamAsync methods which can be used to retrieve resources from StreamingAssets directory.
  • GameManager.ReadDataStream and GameManager.ReadDataStreamAsync methods which can be used to read a Stream from a file on disk.
  • GameManager.SaveDataStream and GameManager.SaveDataStreamAsync methods which can be used to persist a Stream to disk.
  • GameManager.IsDebuggingEnabled flag which can be used to turn on if debug mode is on for the game manager.
  • GameManager.IsApplicationQuitting flag which can be used to check if app is quitting (works in Editor as well).
  • DebuggingChangedMessage which can be used to check if GameManager.IsDebuggingEnabled changes.
  • ApplicationQuittingMessage which can be used to detect if application is quitting (works in Editor as well).
  • async message support via GameManager.PublishAsync and new GameManager.AddListener and GameManager.RemoveListener overloads.
  • Logging API which formats log messages in a consistent format which can be accessed via GameManager.LogWith().
  • OnStarted callback to GameManager which can be used to hook into the Start() method.
  • Caching to DefaultEntityManager.

Changed

  • Renamed some IResourceLoader methods to use Get* prefix instead of Load* so its more consistent with other methods. Methods which read from StreamingAssets directory will use Read* prefix.
  • Renamed IGameStorage to IStorage.
  • Cancellation tokens can now be used in all async methods.
  • Renamed IStorage methods to use Read* and Save* prefixes to emphasise that these methods interact with data on dist.
  • Project directory name will be used for editor storage keys, this should prevent editor key conflict issues with Parallel sync and similar plugins.
  • UniTask is now optional and is no longer pre-packaged. To enable it, define UNITASK_INSTALLED scripting define symbol.
  • Unity Lifecycle methods to use protected instead of private in GameManager.

Fixed

  • GameStorage.GetValueAsync (now GameStorage.ReadValueAsync) not switching back to main thread when no value is found.
  • Message bus not handling abstract and interface listeners.
  • Message bus iteration breaking when listener would remove itself during Raise call.
  • Missing using when making web requests.

v0.0.2 - 2023-10-06

Added

  • GameManagerSettingsProfile which can be used to load a specific GameManager configuration via GameManagerSettings.
  • Better logging with a custom log message format.
  • Property Drawer for GameManagerSettingsProfile, this way it's easier to manage lists of profiles.

Changed

  • GameManagerSettings will now be automatically created at Assets/Settings/GameManagerSettings.asset and added to preloaded asset list (you can move it later). This is needed to support automatic instantiation as previously using Resources.FindObjectsOfTypeAll was not working in builds.
  • GameManagerSettings class visibility is now private.
  • GameManager static methods will now throw an Exception if it's not initialized instead of just logging an error and pausing.
  • Automatic GameManager instantiation now only supports loading before and after scene load.
  • Menu item order to use 150 instead of -1000. This way CHARK won't dominate existing entries.

Removed

  • GameManager.GetGameManagerSettings method as a new profile system will be used instead. Overriding this doesn't make sense anymore.

v0.0.1 - 2023-10-04

Initial preview version.

Added

  • Core Game Management logic.
  • System adding, removal and retrieval.
  • Messaging solution.
  • Storage solution with built-in json support.
  • Documentation.
