Yeah gs is cool ..it just needs work to bring it up to date

with time determination and work , it could become what it
needs to be but with that said i would not know how
good it was coded , would it be an extremely difficult task to
upgrade or was it coded well enough for extending/upgrading ?

Everyone of us knows it is hard work and takes time
Like has been said "steps" and the only way to move forward
is step by step ..every single feature and improvement
pushes it forward and hopefully into an exciting direction..

There are so many engines each with theire good and bad points
i dont think we should be comparing engines against eachother
because it boils down to what you need and they are theire to choose
from if you need unity then use unity if you think its easier to
go with gamestudio or which ever engine then use that engine
the great thing about engines not being the same is the options
you have to find what you like and want and need..

Yes i agree gamestudio has fallen behind with features and tools
and it really needs to step up..
