What's New in hyperPad iPad Game Maker

2.9

October 2, 2026

hyperPad 2.9 is all about stability. This update brings more than 150 fixes to the editor, the player and the Hub. It fixes crashes, plugs memory leaks so long play and editing sessions stay smooth, and adds support for the latest versions of iPadOS. You can also now sign in with Google. New Features: • Sign in with Google on the login and sign-up screens. • hyperPad now asks for your permission before tracking (App Tracking Transparency). • Open iPhone photos (HEIC) and WebP images in hyperPad straight from Files and other apps. • Opening a file hyperPad can't import now tells you so instead of doing nothing. Bug Fixes: • Fixed crashes when opening projects on iPadOS 26 and loading levels on iPadOS 27. • Fixed a crash on iPadOS 15 when signing up, logging in, creating a project or sharing to the Hub. • Fixed Facebook login failing when tracking isn't allowed. • Fixed an issue that could sign you out when opening hyperPad without an internet connection. • Fixed reordering scenes and overlays changing Load Level targets or opening the wrong scene. • Fixed Branch doing nothing on Hub projects. Branched projects now open in the editor. • Fixed the Library getting stuck after sharing or exporting a project. • Fixed games ignoring touches after restarting from the pause menu. • Fixed jumping only working on the bottom of objects with sideways or custom gravity. • Fixed the Count Down behaviour showing the wrong time and running on after its object is destroyed. • Fixed Load Image on spawned objects so each copy keeps its own image. • Fixed Get Object returning zeros in layer mode. • Fixed collision and hit-by-bullet outputs mixing up spawned objects. • Fixed joystick-controlled objects playing the wrong direction animation. • Fixed hidden ad banners reappearing after rotating the device. • Fixed closed overlays that kept receiving messages and slowing games down. • Fixed objects that kept blocking touches after a touch or drag behaviour ended. • Fixed @-mentions and text formatting in Hub posts and comments that contain emoji. • Fixed editor crashes involving undo, layers, collision shapes, particles, copy and cut, and behaviour connections. • Fixed game crashes involving physics joints, Sort Array, HTTP requests, Spawn Object prefabs, audio effects and scene transitions. • Fixed Hub crashes when following users, opening posts, uploading screenshots, viewing your wallet and loading comments. • Fixed dozens more memory leaks across games, the editor and the Hub. • Security improvements for links, downloads and imported projects. hyperPad now requires iPadOS 15 or later. Plus 100+ more fixes and improvements. View the complete changelog on our forum.

User reviews

Super powerful and superb!

I’ve made dozens of games on this puppy and it’s given me endless entertainment. It’s so powerful and easy to use at the same time! It’s impossible to overstate how much I love this app. I’ve made RPG’s, Platformers, Five Nights at Freddy’s Clones, and more! Letting us import our own music and graphics makes our games endlessly customizable! Keep up the great work guys! If I had one suggestion, it’d be to please make a behavior for letting us easily control a platformer character with keyboard controls, it’d be awesome. I’m sure there’s already some way to do this exact idea I’m suggesting, but if they made this update, it’d broaden the horizons of this app far more!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your detailed feedback. We’re thrilled to hear how much you’re enjoying creating games on iPad with hyperPad. One of our main goals is to give indie developers and solo creators the power to make iPad games exactly how they want — from RPGs and platformers to puzzle games and multiplayer experiences. It’s great to hear you’re exploring visual coding, importing assets, and testing gameplay quickly, as that’s exactly what we built hyperPad for. If you’re ever looking for more tips or examples while learning advanced features like multiplayer, our tutorials on YouTube and the hyperPad Forum are excellent resources. We’re excited to see what you’ll create next! Do tag us on socials with #hyperpad as you share your game development journey.

Great App!

Great App for learning Game development and actually build a game. The community is very helpful and supportive with working through the drag and drop behaviors. The Admin team is very active. There for support, fun game jams, and eager to listen and build on user ideas. Easily a 5 out of 5!

Response from developer

Thank you so much! We’re thrilled to hear that hyperPad is helping you learn game design, build playable game prototypes, and turn them into real games you can publish and sell on the App Store. Our goal is to make visual scripting, level design, and asset management accessible so creators at any skill level can focus on gameplay, creativity, and bringing their ideas to life. We can’t wait to see your next game project hit the Hub, and the App Store!

Too Good

Going on two years the experience has been amazing. I've made several small games and feel confident (already am) moving on to larger projects.
The devs actively add nuances and capacities while listening to the community, the software is approachable but fully capable for anything I can imagine/is compatible with my other workflows, other users are cool, developing on tablet is smooth(ist)... Really really good

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! You've captured the spirit of what we're building with hyperPad perfectly. Our goal has always been to give creators the power of a full game engine, with no code required, no royalties taken, and no monthly fees. It’s awesome to hear you've been exploring the visual behaviours like conditionals, math, arrays, and more. They're the heart of how you can make your own games and bring complex ideas to life. And yes, with every update, we’re expanding what’s possible. We’re just as excited for the future of the hyperPad Hub, seeing more indie games made entirely on iPad is what drives us. Thanks again for being part of the journey!

Best Game Design App for Education

I have used HyperPad with literally dozens of schools around Australia and it’s always a hit with the students and teachers. So much you can do around coding concepts, design, problem solving, and the ability to import student character designs and GarageBand soundtracks. Just brilliant all round and I highly recommend it!

Response from developer

Thank you for such a thoughtful and encouraging review! It’s fantastic to hear how hyperPad has resonated with so many Apple schools across Australia. Seeing students and teachers connect with iPad game development through visual coding, design, and problem-solving is exactly what hyperPad is about. Your mention of importing student artwork and GarageBand soundtracks perfectly captures how creativity and learning come together in the classroom. hyperPad is compatible with so many iPad apps. We truly appreciate the recommendation and the incredible work you’re doing to inspire a new generation of creators through EdTech!

It learned me how to make it better

I like it. It’s so fun. I like the learning.
