    So it means everything almost is done, and they beta testing it. I hope I’m wrong, but is GM8 suppose only to include the new sprite editor? Because I didn’t hear anything newer than that. But though, since last version (GM7), it’s been 2 years, so there might be something new except the new sprite editor.

    YYG has a warped sense of time in the same way that Valve does, only worse.
