Of all the features on this list… Ideas For Hype 5 Features… …I think Physics has the most potential to improve the software, especially since a lot of the problems seem to be fixable.
Even the idea of Bones / Joints in Hype, that could be a Physics feature too…

While Windows was a heated topic on the forums… Windows / PC version of Tumult Hype …that's suddenly not as important anymore. Windows 11 is not well-liked by a lot of people. If I was still using Windows, I would likely switch to Linux. I've already been experimenting with Linux Mint XFCE and it reminds me of the simplicity of Windows XP / Windows 7.
Hopefully Apple turns things around because Liquid Glass was not an improvement, so maybe branching out beyond macOS is still important.
A lot of the stuff missing with Hype, I can do manually. But with Physics, if it was better integrated with the Hype app, that would make the software way more powerful.
So how likely is 2026? 
I'm busy working on a web book, so I'm not in a rush. Second-half of the year could be nice though. Ha ha!
