Hey!

Hey all! For nearly a year I have been making apps using Gamesalad, but wanted to start making more advanced stuff and Gideros seems like a good pick. I have a question though, I am a college student and looking at doing the educational upgrade. Is that essentially the Indie upgrade at a lower price? Are there any restrictions for the educational? Thanks!

Hi @MSEagle2,
The way Gideros works is that they do *not* restrict anyone and therefore Gideros has always been FREE for everyone. However, they do have the Splash Screen restrictions which you can remove using the paid versions. Currently if you are a student, the community license would work best for you.

Recently there have been a couple of differences between the Free/non-free versions other than that it is the same, no major differences/ features locked out like other frameworks.

yup as ozapps said there is no restriction and as you are a student you can also get some discount on indie licence (if i am not mixing with some other sites so not much solid answer)

@MSEagle2 and just to clarify, there is no difference between Indie and Educational licenses, except the one that Educational license can be bought only by Students/Professors of Universities
So basically yes, it's an Indie License for the lower price
