    Recording for posts

    The guy behind GMHV posts at the GMC offering to record sounds for people, fair enough – but get this – he will only do it in exchange for registration at this forum and making five posts. This request is priceless, and if this person hadn’t suggested it I would have suggested something similar! (Repeated […] More

    A quality read… MarkUp or GMTech?

    I noticed a few days back that one of the increasingly-at-each-others-throats magazines dedicated to GameMaker was billing itself as “A quality read” following the creation of a new WordPress site which looks suspiciously similar to the earlier website redesign of their rival. Regardless of quality or otherwise, I know that the readership of this blog […] More

    YoYo doesn’t care about piracy of GameMaker

    YoYoGames doesn’t care about the piracy of GameMaker 6. Perhaps this would be obvious to you. But I must admit I was a bit surprised to find that they appear to have given up all hope of trying to stop the availability of illegal registration codes. Yes, there will always be the stereotypical Russian crack […] More

    Interesting Week

    It’s been a, how can I put it, interesting past week for GameMakerBlog. 50 comments in a week, inclusion on GameMaker.info‘s relaunch, falling out and making up with Danny’s GMTV and a potential falling out with GMHV. It’s certainly been very eventful at any rate. More

    Deja vu?

    Time to pick another game maker video site to fall out with. Reviewing content created in “Mark Owenmars” GameMaker game development platform are “Game Maker Helpers Videos(GMHV) Video Reviews !!:!!!!” I think I found someone with a worse microphone than me! More

    New Gamemaker.info

    Simon Donkers has given the GameMaker.info website a face-lift. There are new features available including a customisable startpage, similar to iGoogle. GameMakerBlog is included as one of the default feeds but there is a big selection to choose from, including MarkUp, 64Digits and of course the official news from YoYoGames (if any ever comes). My […] More

    GMA: New design

    Yesterday I put together a new design for the Gamemaker affiliation service. I am quite obviously not the worlds best designer, but I am more concerned about whether or not you understand what the site is about and how it works. If you have any comments, criticisms etc please post them here . More

    War of words?

    Revel Games’ GM TV. Ahh, we can see the professionalism with which the project is being undertaken, already multiple missed deadlines and now a very helpful video insulting this site. I guess that rules out any future collaboration with Danny whom I had been chatting to recently. Let’s hope he doesn’t decide to use clips […] More

    In the press~ish

    As part of an feature I have been writing for the 7th issue of the MarkUp game development magazine (out next month) I have been following the progress of a few game maker made games. One of these games, Immortal Defense was included on the cover DVD of a magazine I read. StudioEres, creator of […] More

    MarkUp 6 5 4 3 2 oh arhhh….

    The MarkUp 6 drafts were made available to those who contribute to the magazine at GMKing around 20 days ago, for the release which normally takes place in the first couple of days of the month. Not so for August it seems. Half way through the month and no sign of the issue’s release yet. […] More

    Stencyling around

    I have just returned from a short break away to find that several new people have begun commenting on GameMakerBlog, welcome all of you. I have some news to share with you regarding my registration of the Stencyl.org domain name. The inevitable came – I was contacted by Stephen Stencyl’s webmaster and was asked to […] More
