IT IS FINISHED - European tshirts!

-DSG- YoYo Games has failed me.
Can't work on Depths.
Upon opening Game Maker Studio v1.1.805, the program told me my license was unable to be validated. It provided a link to a web address to re-validate manually but that just lead to a page of nonsense endless text. I closed and opened it again, and …
