Hi Tony, can I buy GB Basic from itch.io or just on steam? Thanks in advance.

Hi Oscar, The Web version on itch.io and Win/Linux/MacOS one on Steam are totally free to use for making GB games, they can all export to GB compatible ROM, and the Steam version can also export to HTML package. The only paid part of the application is the optional desktop exporter DLC on Steam.

Is there a future where the desktop version can be on itch? I'd pay for a no DRM version, even if its more.

Running Steam to use dev tools is a pain, unless the steam version is also no DRM? That's the main reason I did so little with Basic8. EDIT: Just downloaded and ran without Steam!!! We're good! I'll test it out tonight
