So it's officially out, I'm downloading it now. Anyone got it installed yet? I don't think it's officially supported yet, I imagine we will have to wait for .9.95, @saladstraightshooter, could you check to see when compatibly is coming? Think with mountain lion there is a new Xcode which is currently not supported.

    Not much different but there are a lot of new cool features to try :) and it costs only 19.99$ so why don't buy it? ;)

    Yes! Finally, it's here!

    Let me know if GS works on it..don't want to download it if I can't work during the day. ;)

    @rhinokey if you bought it from apple after June 11th you get a free update. Otherwise it is a $19 upgrade Lots of changes, here is a 24 page review: http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/07/os-x-10-8/

    @patapple if you look at that website, it says that .9.5 is supported, we are on .9.94, so I wouldn't trust it :)

    I got about 30 min left on my download. I think I will be putting it on my laptop for now unti it's officially supported.

    @jonmulcahy Also if you're a registered Mac dev you will be able to download it for free :)

    This is a screenshot of my Mac dev page:

    I've been testing it for a few months now and haven't run into any issues with ML.

    Awesome news.

    @markontheiron, that's how I got it this year, I was owed a copy via uptodate on my MacBook pro, but it was taking too long to receive it via email, so dev portal it is :)

    Great to hear that GameSalad officially supports Mountain Lion @SaladStraightShooter!

    For anyone who has already installed Mountain Lion, how does GS preform on the new OS? Anybody see a reason not to upgrade to Mountain Lion?

    Just got it. No difference in terms of lag, in terms of awesomeness, a lot.
    Things that clearly POP for me:
    1. Game Center-Something that is fantastic for us GS Users.
    2.Notification Boards-Badges etc. in Notifications that tell you if you got an email
    3.Dictation-A little dumbed down version of Siri. You press fn twice and it speaks for you it is very helpful. By the way, this definition was made using dictation.
    4.Safari-Minor tweaks such as not displaying http: etc. that just makes a cleaner time.
    5. I am not sure if it is just my eyes, but the icons for all of my stuff not just Apple Stuff seem brighter. Maybe they modified the RGB. :)
    I think it is a no brainer for only 19.99

    I haven't yet. Kinda scared to do it right now. Think I may wait a week or 2. How about you?

    Wow, that was worth popping over here for! Thanks MarkOnTheIron, I would never have guessed that it was free for developers - you've just saved me 14 quid! Much obliged ;D
