So how did that whole Action Game Maker thing turn out, guys?

Any good?

I'm trying to decide whether it's really worth it. I found Game Maker to be free and have many features that AGM lacks, but it's just frusterating for me to use. AGM (IGM) lacks some standard genre features, and the file sizes of the games tend to be pretty heafty, even for something small. It's also expensive, but compared to Game Maker I can get the hang of it a little more.
I don't remember hearing a lot about it.
Is this the localized version release? I tried the trial and it was the biggest mess of switches and buttons and no real direction to easily make a game.

I am confused and probably misinformed...wasn't it released some time ago?

Its release was like either imminent or had just happened when last I was posting here regularly. And that was a year ago.
It was released as 'IGM' (Indie Game Maker or so) here. It was a complete disaster in just about every way. The trial is 1.3GB big and I couldn't even get that to run.
It can only play WAV files for everything at a specific format.
There's no scripting. It' s harder to make message windows appear now because it supports bitmap fonts, the good thing is that the animation editor, you can set individual hitboxes.

But as an overall, it sucks.

You must have missed the Porn Bot Wave o' Spam.
It looked great at first glance, but seemed almost impossible to make the simplest of animations. I didn't read a tutorial or anything, but I thought it was too complicated. Don't know if it's any good.
