YYG Instant Play now Fx3.6 & GM8 Compatible

After several months of community impatience (Game Maker 8 is four months old tomorrow, Firefox 3.6 several months itself), YoYo Games has finally updated their Instant Play engine to work for both. Internet Explorer should have its IP engine for Game Maker 8 up and running tomorrow, as reported by Sandy on the glog. However, some games made in Game Maker 8 may require a reupload to get working with Instant Play (though, as he said, make sure you don’t do this to competition entries or they’ll be disqualified).

Also mentioned is that compatibility for browers Google Chrome and Opera are planned, but may not be for a while due to other priorities within the company.

What do you think?

    • I don’t use opera, but I agree, the more broswers they support, the more people (like me and you) that don’t use lamestream browsers will use their site. I just download the games, I refuse to use IE or FF to instant play them.

      note to FF fans: If you wish to discuss browser wars with me, PM me or email me.
