Early 2009 is the 1st time period for RetroStudio.

Materials: Plastic was the only option until Late 2009.
Health Bar: Vertical rectangle on the right, marked by blue text "Health".
Leaderboard: Titled "Player List", featuring a fixed list of usernames varying in color.
SuperSafe Chat: Features 13 categories, 68 sub-categories, and (not exact due to visual issues) 478 answers.
Chat: Bubble Chat does not exist yet.
Taskbar: At the top features buttons "Tools", "Insert", "Fullscreen"(non-functional), "Help", and "Exit". The latter two work.

Due to studio limits, Early 2009 is unpopular for making actual games.
This time period is commonly found in "ARG slop", although it has also been used in well respected games like Zombie Survival 2009.

The following is a demonstration of the Early 2009 time period in-game. Fullscreen is recommended.
