I've never really got in to Game Maker, because it had that learning curve and Construct seemed so much more inviting but if they do release a version that exports to mobile devices, it might give me a reason to learn.
I did find another game creation software that works similar to Construct called Game Salad. It's only for Mac though. It would be perfect except it's eventing system seems a little unfinished and objects are unable to "interact" with other objects without going through a bunch of global variables...
