A9 should have no longer a mediocre commercial version but everything the professional version offers with a reasonable price. Or a commercial edition with extensions. Most important for Conitec would be to focus on the future and the devices we use today like smartphones, ipads, mac, linux touchscreens.

I would not purchase A8 pro with what other engines offer today. But from the lack of response on the forum and the activity on Zorro. I believe the GS community is left on its own.

The engine is stil great. And you can play with it. Even create games and simulations or prototypes without to much touble. But community seems quiet.
