Did you email Scirra?

The only way Low-poly pre-rendered graphics are faster than high-poly pre-rendered graphics is the creation of them and pre-rendering time. That's only because it takes longer to make and render the model you're taking rendered images of. (which of course you're doing none of that with C2)

Well I'm unsure how it'd work better for multiplayer, rather inexperienced on making any networked games.

Whatever seems most secure and less likely to cause accidental glitches/cheats.

Any update on this?

I just read one of the post

be aware of the limit if you buy with steam

read well, lucky I didnt buy yet :D

Well most of that information is for going for a company itself. For a company, you might not want steam running due the company policies or whatever.

The only real difference between Steam version and Scirra versions are:

1) Instances: Steam can only have 1 instance open

2) DRM : Steam requires initial online, and understanding on how offline mode works.

3) Profit : Due to being a retailer, Scirra sees less money from it.

For gifts, you can do the same with any steam product and keep the license in your inventory if you're not directly purchasing it for someone.

<font size="1">Beta access you can do on steam as well, although for more control on what version you use (Other than Latest Beta VS Latest stable), a Scirra license would be better met in that regard too. However many people either use Latest Beta or Latest stable anyway so that's not much of a difference

The Steam version makes sense if you're a solo person wanting to develop unhindered. If you're a company with multiple people I recommend going through Scirra as it's easier to have a non-personal license through them (although you could make a company steam account, but only 1 computer can be logged into PC steam.)

There is some sort of sharing information deep within steam's latest client patch, but that "family share" feature hasn't even been mentioned by Steam so who knows what it is.

Some people don't like it running and don't play games or don't talk to people through Steam, it happens.

However it doesn't use much for background processes and it's use is for convenience of access.

There are also valid reasons to use the Scirra version too, as you get more control in the installation.

You should be able to get around this by going "on flash ended" >> Flash

Well it's a steam summer sale.

The best part is Game Maker Studio isn't on sale, so C2 will get a lot of curious people who want to not be limited with the free version.

Huh, though that so that any movement will change angle, not that angle would also change movement direction.

Well hopefully you'll add the vector stuff.

Technically all his skill has taken him decades.

Yeah, it just takes more events to do the same thing without families. Other than that you can do everything.
