I have only seen drafts of 4 of the chapters and I can't find the figure off-hand but believe there were planned to be something in the region of 10-15. It is a shame though - but many Game Maker related things (and others!) end prematurely due to lack of commitment (sounds like I am bitter at a relationship. No chance)!.

Maybe they could polish it a little and sell it as a PDF. As for the Game Maker’s Companion definitely a pre-order for me - I'm planning a platforming game at the moment, and the previous book was excellent. Sondar.
