I am Just asking Why Don't You Make The Android Publishing Available For All (Basic & Pro) With Unavailable BeHaviors Like "OpenURL GameCenet etc.."? And After We Saw The Android Publishing in Gamesalad! Will We See a Windows Version Of GameSalad "Only Android Publishing"?

    I'm Not a Pro Member, And Even I'm Glad That It's Pro Only. More Incentive For People To Go Pro, And Give GameSalad The Support They Deserve. I Just Can't Afford To Support Them Just Yet.

    I Doubt There Will Ever Be a Windows Version For Android Only, But I'm Also Wrong A Lot.

    I am also happy its pro only.

    With game salad being free and it only costing 99 bucks to apple to be able to put apps on the appstore, it is already too easy to put up a bunch of junk.

    With the android market only costing 25 bucks to publish and there being no review process, could you imagine the explosion of game salad branded shovelware flooding the market.

    Gamesalad needs to make a profit to pay their employees and to keep improving the software. If they give out their best features for free then they are only gaining exposure without much potential to monetize.

    Many people are out to make a quick buck without much work involved. If the initial investment to be able to publish apps is so low, then we will see more stealing of graphics, project files, and templates that are already hurting the actual working developer.

    I'd be happy if it was 100 bucks minimum for game salad like it used to be. That would weed out many of the freeloaders looking to steal and exploit honest developers apps for a quick buck.

    But from game salads standpoint, it would drastically reduce their exposure and their marketing strategy of bringing game development to everybody.

    I'd like to go ahead and echo the comments here. Android needs to stay pro. And I would not expect a version of the creator to run on windows. They are having a hard enough time getting a stable mac version going.

    I would have thought that if all current features were released at the same time that both Android and iOS would be Pro features and web (html5) would be free.

    So free users have an amazing thing in that they can get their apps on the app store
