Scratch

I have recently begun creating my new OS, WS Metro.
It is primarily inspired by Microsoft Windows 8, though with several differences.

Essentially, it is a sequel to my highly rubbish OS that I made when I was younger, Windows Scratch (now WS Classic).
But WS Metro is much, much better than WS Classic. Everything is perfected, even the distances between sprites have been mathematically calculated.

Here is the logo:


It's essentially the Windows 8 logo, flipped and recoloured.

The current version is pa0.3b and the current 2.0 version is 2pa[0.3b]b.
WS Metro is still in Pre-Alpha, so there will be bugs and many features are not yet added.

You can try the latest version here: pa0.3b
You can try the latest 2.0 version here: 2pa[0.3b]b

Full Changelog:
