    Game Maker TV back on track

    GMTV dead? Despite all the delays along the way it looks like the first real episode will soon be available to watch. Several months late with lots of missed deadlines it is hardly likely to take the Game Maker world by storm but it’s nice to see that Danny has stuck at his idea despite […] More

    GMTV part 666

    ….Decide what host to use already, or how about getting a domain or paid hosting? GMTV still hasn’t released the “episode one”. Instead we’ve seen some weekend extras that have done a poor job at explaining things properly and were mostly useless tips. The new website uses CuteNews. Horrible. I mean, if they’d use it […] More

    Whoops – No Changes.

    Normally I would moan about people who have problems with their site and don’t do anything to rectify it quickly, however I have a confession. For around 12 hours GameMakerBlog was displaying a message telling people the site was offline, and would be back soon with some changes. This was an error. The site moved […] More

    Clean the World.

    I was informed by Grego that today is Blog Action Day. This issue being promoted was the environment so I searched YoYoGames for relevant games, ‘environment’ and ‘recycle’ both returned no results but I did manage to discover “Clean the World“. A game in which you are a gnome and must clean up rubbish which […] More

    Dubbing Wrecks Movies

    This is the English-only GMC I’m talking about. If you can read, write and understand English then you’re okay – if not you’re, to put it delicately, screwed. Unless of course you happen to speak German or Dutch and belong to one of the marvellous unofficial foreign language communities such as the German Game Maker […] More

    Site That Sells Games For You

    Yet another of these topics has arisen in the distributing games section of the community, topics in which people relatively new to GameMaker come up with the oh-so-unoriginal idea of making a website to sell GameMaker made games.

    Thoughts on Instant Play

    There has been a lot talked about, or rather written about, the recent addition of an Instant Play to YoYoGames. Most of the comments are positive however there have been some complaining that their games do not appear to be compatible with instant play, and of course there have been those moaning that they want […] More
