Engine

This sprint we’ve spent fixing and updating several extensions, such as Google Play Services which has gotten a good upgrade with support for Achievements, Leaderboards and Events.

The In-app Purchases extension also got some love with some stability fixes on iOS.

The iOS version of the WebView has been migrated from the deprecated UIWebView to the new WKWebView.

Also, we’ve adressed the outstanding issue of adding color to the debug text.
We now have a new message draw_debug_text which always require you to specify a color.
