  Check the release notes, r81 is a beta release. We're going to improve this in future to make it clearer.

  When I test physics for a long time I always get extreme slowdown after some time which makes it very inconstant and unreliable. Because it oscillates a lot the fps I'm not much confident in making a game that is heavily based on physics.

  This is what the new Physics behavior is designed to solve... is it any better with this new version?

  Ubivis, I'd highly recommend Dropbox as a more modern, faster and easier alternative to FTP!

  See this bug. It's a bug in a beta release - stick to stable releases if you want to avoid this type of thing.

  Arima, that's odd because the Physics object doesn't have any dependency on the size of the window, it's a pure logic engine. Are you sure the same thing doesn't happen without the Physics behavior? 1920x1080 resolution can max out the fill rate on some graphics cards and cause slowdown.

  Well, it would only be faster when using a very large number of objects. The main difference should be that garbage collection pauses or stuttering are reduced in big games.

  You could also export directly to a public folder on Dropbox, and it will get to work uploading everything as soon as the files are exported. Wait a moment and it should be live, without having to do anything.

  Not a bug: keep an eye on the active layer. You are dragging the player on to the UI layer which has scrolling disabled (set parallax to 0, 0 earlier in the tutorial). To fix it, make sure you recreate the player on the 'Main' layer.

  Hmm, yeah, this is caused by the prior bug fix since the text box field handles all character input rather than Construct 2. So the text box receives the enter press and does nothing with it. Maybe I can add exception for certain keys, like enter and escape... any others?
