Edit

In one sentence

An edit is one change you ask for after the game already exists. "Make the jump shorter" is one edit. A new game from a new sentence is not an edit.

The detail

Pro includes 100 edits in a calendar month. A pack of 50 more stays on the account until those 50 are used. The trial includes 100 as well, and 2 new games rather than the monthly 4.

An edit that describes three unrelated changes will come back with one of them, or with a muddle. One idea at a time is how the build stays close to the request. A build that stops before the change is in the ROM does not spend the edit.

Edits do not reset the month's game count. You still have 4 new games on Pro. Changing level two of a game you already made is the edit. Asking for a different game is a new game.

Worth keeping

  • One edit is one change to a game that already exists
  • Pro includes 100 edits a month, and a pack of 50 does not expire until you use it
  • A failed build does not spend the edit or a game credit

Questions

How many changes can I put in one edit?

One. A list of three wishes is three edits, asked one after another.

Do unused monthly edits roll over?

The 100 included each month do not. A purchased pack of 50 stays until you spend it.

Is a new game an edit?

No. A new sentence that starts a new ROM uses a game, not an edit.
