No, I'm not fed up, but I have to admit that the last update was in Spring and there have been not much news since then. There is no way to sugar-coat it: we're occupied with other tasks at the moment. But Gamestudio is alive and will get new features as soon as human development resources are available again.

amen

It's encouraging to hear it's alive, at least I hope your other tasks are fruitful, and we see more in GS again!

Seeing as you read this JCL and says its alive (it is nice to read you read this ); I agree with what Catsup said "Most important for Conitec would be to focus on the future and the devices we use today like smartphones, ipads, mac, linux touchscreens.".

Gamestudio 3D is never going to compete with e.g. the latest Unreal engine in terms of AAA graphics, but it doesn't need to if Gamestudio 3D builds upon its strengths (flexibility and accessibility). Mobile support strengthes flexibility.

Am I the only one who doesn't care THAT much about cross-platform and mobile support?
For me it's more important that Acknex is flexible and highly customizeable.

But yeah.. I still enjoy using acknex and it is good to hear that it's still alive.

Cross-platform and mobile support (slobber)
Especially mobile... The money you can make with that... (slobber)
And yes, you can make real money with mobilegames. The games were you make money with are free-to-play (with content you can buy for real money).
After making and publishing 10 simple games like this:
Simple game
One or two will probably be more or less "successful" (200-500 players), and you make a few hundred a month.
The same goes for normal app (I tried it).

Beside that, I will finally be able to make my own rpgs with the acknex engine for mobile devices! Classic RPGs made with acknex!!

I really don't care at all for mobile ports/ versions of acknex. Instead I'd like to have a solid, robust, somewhat modern and comfortably usable (-> new WED) PC game studio.
Mac and Linux support obviously is a huge plus and IMO the sensible and right thing to pursue from an engine or game developer's point of view (I can however understand the decision to make a fee-based mobile version from a businessman's perspective).

If mobile was available soon I would upgrade to the latest version. Otherwise I have no reason to leave A7.

@Superku, I agree with Linux and Mac support too. Cause that will improve flexibility too. But seriously, the mobile market is a big market! Think about this for a second;
IGN mobile review "Superku, the greatest mobile game ever created. Even better than games of EA and Activision who give us money for a positive review"

ps: I was searching for linux support and found this from Quad that sums up nice that Android, Linux and Mac support go well together:

I disagree with the whole mobile segment thing - note though that it's only my opinion. I think it would have been a good idea to develop a mobile game maybe 3 years ago when no one, esp. the big studios, noticed how much money you could make in that sector. Nowadays from what I heard it's pretty much impossible to sell more than a handful of copies (if any) there because of the sheer amount and flood of titles. No matter how cool your indie game is it can and most likely will get buried below a magnitude of titles of big name studios and other indie games which got a lot of coverage.
The PC market is a different one, there you don't need to reach the masses of players of which some may spend a cent or two on your product (how would you reach them as a hobby dev with pretty much no marketing budget?), instead you have a crowd of partially passionate gamers who actively research indie games, gamers who are not afraid to spend real money (up to 20 bucks) on your game, youtube channels and individuals which can give you vital coverage and after all there's Steam with 100 million active gamer accounts.
