He? Well, if you haven't heard, Mark Overmars teamed up with a "company" called YoYo Games (I know, corny as hell...the owner/founder is the former leader of Xbox Europe). So now, there's a whole bunch of new shabizzle. Things like, YoYo Games is going to be doing all the transactions and whatnot (which is going to be done differently then the previous versions).
They're also going to be 'moving' the GMC to a new forum on YoYo's server. And I think you'll be able to host your games on their site (meaning no crappy and slow hosting websites to wait for), and some other stuff. I think you can check the website...

Mark finally gave into an over-generous offer. He's bloody rich now. Hopefully this won't be the downfall of GM.

I know that many of you are anxiously waiting for version 7.0 of Game Maker and also for the new YoYo Games site. I am sorry to say that there is a slight delay but we are all working very hard on finalizing things.

The problem is that a number of things have to be ready at the same moment: the new version of the software (this is actually finished), the new website, and the new payment mechanism. In particular the last takes more time than we hoped.

I cannot yet give a firm release date but it will be soon. Please be a bit more patient.

Mark
Sorry guys!

But I'm going to make a bet with some random street-person that GM7 will be out...before the end of Alberta's weekend this week...
...That's right, in Alberta (Canada) we get Monday off on account of 'Family Day.'

Here in Sweden we get all of next week off, and no it's not spring break, spring break is in about a month.

lol I think I forgot to say the most important part. Marky said that everything needs to be done at the same time...everything is done now except for the transactions on the website.

Hey I just figured something out!

Sandy at Yo Yo Games said that GM7 is going to be released tommorow. When people say that, they usually mean at 12 midnight. Except, she said it was coming out Wednesday, in UK time. So for anyone here in North America, we're going to be getting it earlier in the day than UKers.

So westerners like I will probably get it by 6 or 7 tonight, is my point. But I'd be stupid if I was saying that we are getting it 5 hours before UK.
