Steam Workshop Grand Opening!
We're excited to announce the opening of Grand Class Melee 2's Steam Workshop! Be sure to take a look at our official modding guide: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=663155592
Whether you'd like to tweak any of the 66 classes there in the game right now or patch in completely new jobs & abilities, everything's ready to go. There are only a handful of class tree mods up on the workshop right now but we're hoping that changes sometime soon! :D
There's still a bit of fleshing out due for the modding guide and video tutorials are on the way. We're eager to see what sort of cool stuff you the Steam community cook up, don't hesitate to ask us anything on the community forums! <3
Steam Controller Support
We're happy to announce that we have recently patched build-in support for the Steam Controller. We've always believed that GCM2 is best played with a gamepad, and with the increasing popularity of the device we felt it was for the best to have an official controller configuration. So give it a try, and let us know what you think, or feel free to make your own and post it to the community.
We're also happy to announce that final preparations are being made for the steam workshop that will allow players to make their own classes and modifications to the class tree. Stay tuned!

Features Added:
Custom Classes: we are excited to announce that we have been working diligently on giving you the power to make your own classes for GCM2. Currently this feature is limited to the functionality and assets already present in the build, but we are working to make this feature compatible with a custom character creator we are working on. You will be able to share your own creations, and download others' from the Steam Workshop very shortly.
Currently, if you want to make your own classes, or change the default ones, you can do so in the "../Content/Data/" folders in your install directory. We suggest making a backup of the default classes if you intend to alter them.
