How long do you think the offer will last?

Anyway, while I don't quite plan to make any games yet, I already nabbed the license just in case. Offers like these are rare as hell.

Knowing that it is free, prob not long! I grabbed one too even though I am using MMF2.

Damn i can't run the program on my pc seeing that i still use vista. That's a bitch. Any chance anyone has extra product keys? I do have the dl file. Just cant use it unless i get a new os. Figured i'd ask.

Maybe you could do a little research with this and get it running...

Should I ever move to another computer and reinstall GM Studio there, can I just reuse my license?

Yep I believe, so. I think that's what the license is for...

No my pc wont let me update to netframework 3.5 from microsoft. It says it can't run it. But gm studio says it needs 3.5 to install the program. I am forced to abort installation everytime. That page doesnt' to much good. I tried all that.. still no cigar.

If you got that free Standard Edition I posted earlier, you can upgrade to professional till the 6th for only $25.00!

What benefits does the Pro Edition have?

Best bet is to ask Theoagies. I'm sure he knows more than me. I assume it would run much like an updated version of gm8 or 8.1. With all the regular unlock features useable on pc or mac(advanced mode,full features like level editor,sprites,scripting,backgrounds,objects and no logo watermark). Not the extra stuff that is for androids,apps,smartphones,web page games,html.etc. I assume those are the higher priced versions. I heard something about shaders too. Don't quote me on any of this...i'm merely doing guesswork. Any chance anyone here might be able to sign me up(register) me for a product key. I could pm you my email or whatevre. I know this is bad....and normally i'd do this myself but  i can't cause i have shitty vista os and sadly you need at least windows 7 to run gm studio. I can't upgrade either. So i will have to either buy a new pc at some point or windows 7. Well anyone who could help that'd be big. Just let me know if ya can.

Nice. Grabbed a license for good use. I'm not sure how I'd missed this before.

Although... there is a catch: "By registering you consent to receiving marketing emails from YoYo Games". And there's no way to opt out. Ah, well, it's just a little more spam to be filtered away. Hardly a tragedy.
