Quick summer summary, the most important being to play around with the newest release, more documentation, examples and results will come during the next months.

Also be sure to check the front page of the website, there's a new design that will be applied to the rest of the site in the coming months.

See you next month.

Good Job, Kyatric.

This is my second time seeing you sum everything in a month up since I joined the board

It does feel very nice to have these recaps!

Kyatric, your efforts to simplify the continually growing knowledge base on this site provide new-comers and advanced users alike a better, more enjoyable experience in this community.

You single-handedly improve the reputation of this software and this community with your outstanding contributions. Construct 2, and its community, wouldn't be the same without you.

And all I can say is thank you.

Good job for Scirra. This time there are not many releases but r100 is a big fish so well done.
