The split screen demo would be a great example of that.

The multiplayer of Game Editor is not just a few network commands.
Is an engine to ensure the synchronization among all connected machines.

The development version I have here have synchronization problems.
To solve this problems I need to rewrite the way of event execution in the Game Editor.

So, I need time to rewrite...

Yes, I need to pay my bills!

what's the release schedule looking like for version 2?


I don't know, sorry. But now, I have hired a developer to work in the Behavior panel of the new interface (this panel will be a new way of build the actions).
I'm working on the new script panel (almost finished).

Paying for GE now will actually speed up development, and with the silver or gold package you will get updated when the multiplayer comes around.

I arrived at GE from byond. Its a good system but the community went bad, at least while I was there.

I think people are referring to different levels of Game Editor licenses, but I could only find one when I paid for my version.
