What Happened to All the Free Platforms?

Hello :D

I have not been on gamesalad for a while, but when i decided to continue my game, i got an update that completely changed the look of the GS menu. It looks great now, but i have one problem. The look of the menu months ago provided dozens of free simple platforms that showed some mechanics you can use. Now, the new menu only gives about 5 free platforms...and if you press "show more" you will just be brought to the game salad market. I need to find an old platform that showed how to create two different types of joysticks, a circular joystick and a joystick with 4 buttons that controlled the movement in a linear way. Does anyone know where these platforms went? Do they even exist anymore? Any response is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    When they went with web based publishing they (temporarily) did away with those templates. I'm not sure if they're ever coming back. Anyways i'm pretty sure the CONTROLLER DEMO template should in fact be there. Look through all of them on the left hand side (i believe) of the menu. Pretty sure that controller demo is there. Not sure of what its called though

    The free demos haven't returned, but some of us (myself included) downloaded enough of them that we can provide them to the community when needed. If it's the Official Cross-Platform Controller Template, then it's the last one in the list on the left side of that window. Otherwise, someone else may have a controller demo downloaded (I don't).

    I'm busy right now for a few more weeks but I am willing to host the templates on the GSguide. it's due for an update and facelift. When I do, I'll post a call for any templates I am missing.
