    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

    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

    Gamemaker T.V.

    I returned from a short break today to find that the top post in the community section of the GMC is entitled Gamemaker T.v., so I think to myself, has someone uncovered my mighty unsecret of GameMaker.tv? Umm, no. Instead revelgames have decided to setup Game Maker Television, “a internet show that will review Games, […] More

    Stencyl

    Today I registered the Stencyl.org domain name. For those of you who don’t know Stencyl (official site) is an up-and-coming open-source game development and distribution platform – think of it as an open source, and probably better run version of GameMaker. Quite why the creators of open source software neglected to register the .ORG of […] More

    Widespread piracy of GameMaker

    The DRM integrated into the latest version of GameMaker has caused problems for a few legitimate users who have tried to install the software on more than one computer, but undoubtedly the people most effected by the new registration system are the “I’ll stick with GM6ers”. Those that post on the GMC looking for downloads […] More

    Summer gamemaking

    I haven’t been making many posts recently and with the summer coming up (not in weather terms) you may expect me to say that I will be updating gamemakerblog more frequently.  In fact the opposite is probably the case. Over the summer break I will be spending more time working on GMKing projects such as […] More

    Don’t have the time

    Some people, honestly. When asked by a member of the GMC to provide a more detailed description of his game this member decides that they don’t have time to add more information. “Very detail discription: Like I have time for that?” Like people who ‘can not be bothered’ to post a screenshot this really infuriates […] More

    No one likes me

    Arhhhh Why oh why do people at the GMC come up with such absurd assumptions as this,  that people are purposely ignoring them and are boycotting any topics posted in by this particular member. Perhaps it is because of this member’s interests which include, as stated in the members profile, “going out on the street […] More

    Work Experience

    On Monday I start a weeks work experience with a local technology company, my job title for the week – “Games Tester”. I don’t really know what to expect, however I have done work experience at another local software company previously. Not sure if I will be confined to sorting CDs, as I was for […] More

    GameMaker.tv

    In an poor attempt to emulate GMKing’s ‘leaky pipes‘ promotion technique, as used for announcing the YoYoGames endorsement of MarkUp, you probably haven’t noticed the few subtle hints I have been trying to drop about a Game Maker related project I am planning. Maybe you have now. Well the domain was avalible and I needed […] More

    Ad results

    It seems that GameMakerBlog should be renaming MarkUpBlog, following the two previous posts about the magazine I will again mention it. In particular I am going to be looking at the results so far from my graphical ad for the Game Maker Affiliation Service. An ad is offered by MarkUp to people who contribute content […] More
