The newest upcoming features can be checked out in the 2023.4 beta for everybody.
There are more bling bling features this time and they added the glow/bloom effect, which is one of my most requested features. A big thank you from my side to the YoYo Games team who added this feature! Besides that you have more visual effects like cloud that generates... clouds. A mask visual effect that allows overlaying with mask sprites (this one can be very powerful). Additional we got another blurr effect and blend modes can be now set via the visual effects on a layer or global.
Small but not to be overlooked features are that you now can do specific cleans for your code, audio and graphics if you wish for faster builds. And last but not least they did add an asynchronous event for audio playback end.
Note: Please use glow/bloom in moderation since it quite taxing for every graphics card
Tldr:
Blooooooom
