Skydiver in the App Store

Game Maker creation SkyDiver Mach II is available to purchase in the Apple App Store.

The game, with YoYo Games branding on the loading screen only, is on sale at $0.99.  I haven’t personally tested the game but am told it runs fine on iOS 4 and on iOS 3.2 on iPad (problems with the game’s screen resolution have been reported on iPods running older software).

This is the first time a Game Maker game has been officially ported to a mobile device and now the iOS runner is complete we should expect to see portable versions of more of the best Game Maker creations.  Kirsty has stated that information on submitting games to “the store” will be released “very soon”.

    • Though there’s an artist to replace sprites/graphics as needbe, the game is still fundamentally its creator’s (Chad Chisholm’s), so deliberate design decisions such as its fonts remain.

    I really need to get back into using GameMaker. Miss it a lot. Looking forward to seeing more of the great creations off YoYoGames.com on the appstore :).
