I can bet you (maybe not 2 months-maybe a year) But stencyl will become a pay-to-get thingy if the makers see that it's gaining so much popularity
The team said they will NEVER charge for Stencyl. Jon wants to bring the best game creation program to everyone. Charging for the program would only hurt his goal.

It would only be hurting it if it were actually the best game creation program, which it isn't, and it won't be.

I will laugh if it actually turns out to blow everything else out of the water. :P

Looking forward to this.  Can't wait for the beta.  <3

lol yeah. It's like..everyone is like "ZOMG STENCYL ZOMG ZOMG" but in a few days everyone gets bored of it.

I'm not against it, i'm just saying that don't get over-excited about Stencyl.

<Irock> Are we getting over excited about Stencyl, Stephen?
<Stephen> Sorry?
<Irock> Everyone is excited about Stencyl
<Irock> But are we over excited?
<Irock> Are we expecting too much?
<Stephen> We hope not :)
<Stephen> We've been honest about what's in and what isn't in the 1.0 program


So if you're aware of everything in the 1.0 program, and you're excited, you shouldn't be disappointed when Stencyl is released.

whats in 1.0 and whats not isnt the point. It could have all the features you could think of and it may still suck :(.

atm im tempted to call vaporware.

a perfect example is final fantasy 12 packed full of features and minigames but WHERE THE FUCK IS THE STORYLINE.

Why not stop posting things that could be wrong with Stencyl, and actually ask them yourself?

And thus we wait under the arltree for the coming of Stencyl.
*lies in wait*

Be kind, everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

Nightwolf

Irock, you have no right to dissaprove our opinions and tell us to stop posting them

we think stencyl sucks so we beleive it.


And we aren't saying it SUCKS, atleast i'm not. I'm saying it;ll come like a wave and get washed down in about 1 month or something

I'd rather people give their opinions to the Stencyl Team, and wait for a response. They love to hear opinions, especially the well thought out ones.

Not at all. The team loves receiving feedback from the community. It helps further improve their program.

Nightwolf

irock, the stencyl dev team live and breath stencyl their hardly going to like us marching in their telling them there doing it wrong. Its a bit like trying to take a toy of a child or a bone of a dog. Try it and theres tantrumns and bodily fluids all over the place

Actually, you have it all wrong. They REALLY enjoy criticism.

ahref

they enjoy it because they know that the criticizer is the minority being that there on a forum/irc room full of zealots.

the fallacy : http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-popularity.html

will be overused.

its much easier convincing the above of how he shouldnt become a zealot of everything with the words  "inovative" and "new" plastered on them

Your entire post is a simple guess. The team likes receiving opinions. The majority of the people on the Stencyl forums are like "OMG STENCYL IS PERFECT." Trust me, the team would rather get well thought out criticism. I've seen Jon talk about offering someone a spot in the beta because he gave some well thought out criticism. They don't get a lot of it, and they don't have a problem with it.

so what your saying is i should march into stencyl HQ and go your product will fail and thell like it.

... sick fuckers.

And Stencyl doesn't have an HQ. x_x

Normally a headquarters refers to an actual building or room, but alright.

Irock is completely right. Jon would love well thought-out criticism. Just don't go in there and say "stencl sux... lul." Nobody likes that. :/

QuoteAnd Stencyl doesn't have an HQ. x_x
Jon's house. XD
