Hello, It was recently mentioned to me that for my game I will need a patcher, does Game Guru support this? Ifso how? If not, are there any solutions to this?

If by "patcher" you mean a system to push new content and updates to your users, then I think the answer is no.
Solutions would depend on whether you need to update the .exe, or just files in the "Files" folder of your standalone.
You might have to code one yourself with something like VB, C#, or FreePascal.
In today's Twitch at 30:07 Lee mentioned a vestigial FTP module that is still in GameGuru.
If you mention it on the "Feature Creep" forum they might be able to do something for you.

It's probably better if you look at something like Clickteams PatchMaker (used to be called) which can detect LAST and NEXT versions and create a patch file installer that only contains the changes. Very useful when updating a large game folder.
