Any chance of a functioning back button?

I see that Gamesalad have just added a feature to disable the back button quitting apps to make them acceptable on the Amazon store but is there any chance of getting a properly functioning back button on Android any time soon? One which will actually be able to navigate backwards through the app in a professional manner only finally quitting out when pressed on the home screen?

    You can code it manually...kind of. In each scene you can have a rule that triggers when the back button is pressed. Just code it logically. For example, in my main game scene I may change scenes to the main menu when the back button is pressed. I think, though it's been a long time so I'm not completly sure, that having the back button exit the game is not possible at this time.

    You could always as a feature request.

    Yes I've added back button functionality as explained somewhere on the forum, unfortunately it has never worked. Just curious if anyone has ever managed to get it to work properly?
