I absolutely love it, especially the reviews/comments being separated. Now I can provide support!

FearTheDev · August 31, 2020, 8:55pm

All I can say is that this is a super awesome update. Lots of great content as well as awesome improvements to the platform. Really glad to see that rating and comments are now completely separate. This allows for not only giving feedback to other creators but also commenting to the feedback others leave on our games. I am blown away by the amount of content that is coming with this update! Really looking forward to playing with all these scifi assets, and can't wait to see what people create.
