Game Maker: studio standard Free?

[zed45zed]

with the downloadable version, The free version of game maker has unlimited resources, will this be coming to the steam version?

I'd assume so. They may be working out how to keep previous Standard users' options with Steam's setup.

I can't foresee it happening on here.
I completely regret buying GMS on steam. You get a lot more offers from yoyo than what you get on steam.
I took advantage of this offer the other day and downloaded the standard edition. So now I intend to work on the standalone program, without having to use steam to access it. Plus you get a license key, whereas you don't on steam so can't take advantage of yoyo deals.

they should change the pricing because the info at yo yo games is that its standard version is now the free version

Except not really. The new iteration of Standard is free, but it's lacking features previous Standard users have paid for that Yoyo wants to preserve. Like I said, they're probably working out how to let present Steam Standard users keep things the new version doesn't allow, like Mac and Windows 8 export. They also have to patch up previous Free users to the new Standard and relist the versions in the storefront accordingly, all of which I imagine Valve is going to want to approve and negotiate to some degree first.

I believe the standard version will arrive to steam sooner or later
