No. Just No. no update and unusable . It feels like a cash grab and dash. a month of half astrid programming and eight of ads. Make the price high enough that the discount to good to miss out on and profit. when it first started is claimed as platformer and side scroller that should have been my big hint.

Is there EVER going to be an update??? I'm feeling swindled. This software does nothing significant, and in its current state, it is definitely not nearly worth the price I purchased it for.

This app doesn't do what the description and video would have you believe. It should not have been released in such a poor state. Frankly, it is useless.
I managed to make a platform, a player character and an enemy but that was as far as the app went. The game shown in the video seems to be a prediction of what the app might be capable of in the future. If you try to open the sample project it does nothing - presumably because said project does not exist and cannot exist with the app in its current state. I do not know how the game shown in the video was made but it seems unlikely they made it in Creatry.
I would sincerely love to be proved wrong. Please, Sanyo/DEVs publish a detailed tutorial on how to reproduce the game shown in the trailer. Maybe I am missing something but I can't seem to find the tools in this app to do it.
I was willing to give the DEVs the benefit of the doubt and so waited for the app to improve but they no longer seem even to be attending to the community hub. I now fear it was a money-grab.
My earlier optimism was also 'rewarded' by Steam's refusal to issue a refund because the 14-day period has expired.
Unless this app gets some serious development do not waste your money. In its current state it's a rip-off.
For now you would be better off using Platform Builder Pro (or even Platfinity if you want to make an extremely basic platformer).

DO NOT BUY. This scam hasn't been updated since launch, can not create anything even remotely resembling a game without having to fight it's garbage UI tooth and nail, and the 'game' it does export will be a buggy mess. Disgusted with the Creatry devs for putting this product out and not delivering on their promises, and disgusted with myself for sitting on it with faith that they'd at least make it usable.
UPDATE April 2021: No update. 6 months later the game has never updated, there is still only one module, there is still no back end. So to repeat, DO NOT BUY. I'll check back in in another 6 months.
UPDATE September 2021: Nothing changed yet. Still the same old trash interface (why does *hovering over* the scale buttons, even accidentally, 'click' them?). No copy-paste, so prepare to remake every single ground tile even when they use the same texture and settings. The one and only TUTORIAL example still does nothing when you click on it. See you all in 6 months.
