What is this? Is it a ROM Hack?

I'm an old player; why is this version so different? Where's Gamemaker19?
- The original game finished development in May 2023, on version 19.12, which was also the time when the official servers stopped being supported; this left the players with only one possibility of playing online: using RadminVPN to simulate LAN.
- New developers, most notably Gacel, went and made a new version of the game which made playing online easy again, bringing along a lot of quality of life changes to the game. This new version is called the Community Edition.
- As for GM19, he moved on with his life after finishing the game, and is no longer here.
How do I install mods or custom maps?

- For mods that change gameplay/code, you need to install them in a separate, empty folder.
