The iDev news article gave our beloved GM a mention, at least.

This is going to be a real pain. I always got a few questions and even registrations for Windows Game Maker by accident. Now it's going to be much worse.

I just spent about 2 months trying to update some older software and now I'll get back to GameMaker again.

You shouldn't back down - Windows Game Maker came out in 1999, and "Big Al's" GameMaker dates back to 1995 - you win.

I anticipate a lot of confused users ending up here.  The question is, do we add a forum for this Game Maker or not?

No. We shouldn't support them at all, I think.

They are for mac development...  though they're stealing Al's thunder.

Lol. Not every windows GM user is a 13 year old troll.

Not every one, but I'm guessing probably quite a few are.

Very cool! I'm gonna try it out. :3

EDIT: ****in' Intel macs.
I need an Intel mac to use it anyways.
