> A few things.

> 1. The 200$ HTML5 module for GM only gets you the HTML5 export. With Construct 2, you get every exporter they have for the one price.

> 2. The business edition is only needed for teams or if you have a higher income from your creation. You can get the personal edition which gives the exact same features inside of C2 for 120$ (Which ends up being less than the 200$ HTML5 module for GM)

> 3. You get all of the updates for free. When Scirra releases a new exporter you just update the software and you have it, no extra 200$ to unlock it. From what I can remember, if YoYo releases a new GM version you have to pay for everything all over again to get that new version.
1. But as far as I know, the iOS and Android apps are just HTML5 and then run with a runner. Whereas in GM: S it will be compiled directly to native code (not actually available yet)
2. I plan on making a living form HTML5, so the personal edition won't cut it (I'd end up having to upgrade to the business edition anyways).
3. You get all the updates to GM for free (I've used GM in the past).
1. But then when you want to export to IOS/Android you need to toss in another $400, which puts the cost above the business edition.
2. The personal edition is very cheap, and you don't have to get the business edition until you make $5000. Once you've made that 5k $300 won't be too much of a problem. Since the actual software is the exact same I don't see how the personal edition "won't cut it" whereas the business one will.
3. Okay, I guess it has changed then.
