So, as people probably have realised by now the Gluon Alpha is a bit delayed. The work on renaming and all took a bit longer, thus causing everything else to be delayed as well. However, all changes have been pushed to master last sunday. With that done, there are only 3 "Blocker" Items left to do: A scriptable component, correct Asset handling (nearly done) and correct reorder and moving of things in the scene (which is also nearly done.)

So the obvious question is "When will it be released now?" Hopefully, we can finish the Asset and Object support in creator by the end of this week, which would mean the last thing to do is to add the scriptable component, which can hopefully be done over the weekend. Alpha would then be tagged end of the weekend/begin next week.

As a teaser, I made a screencast of Gluon Creator, where I use some of the recently added features to create some objects. Unfortunately, somehow, when recording with recordMyDesktop the drag and drop from the Components dock to the Scene dock fails. Thus, I had to stop recording every time I needed to add a component, add the components, and continue the recording. This causes some skips in the video, but they should not be too annoying. Also, the video has been sped up to 200% original speed. I'm really not that fast with a mouse. ;)
