    I bought GameMaker School

    Broadcasting to the world a domain name you plan to register isn’t the brightest idea is it? Not so when I am king of domains starting “GameMaker…” (GameMakerBlog.com, GameMaker.tv, GameMakerStream.com, GameMakerTV.com, GameMaker.es, GameMakerNews.com, GameMaker8.com). GameMakerSchool.com has been added to my list. Some of you will probably think this was a harsh move on my half […] More

    YoYoGames.com is worth $696,640

    Many of you have probably seen people trying to flog off third-rate domain names claiming to have had them appraised and valued at ridiculously humongous sums. DNScoop is actually one of the reasonable sites out their valuing websites based on their Page Rank, number of incoming links and age of domain amongst some other figures. […] More

    The GMPlanet Effect

    A month on from the launch of game maker news aggregator gmplanet I have decided to examine if it has had an effect on GameMaker Blog’s traffic levels as I feared it may. In January one of GameMakerBlog.com’s top referrers, gamemaker.info, sent 114 visits our way. In February however this reduced to just 43 visits, […] More

    GM Arcade

    It appears this is the first post on GameMaker Blog or gmnews about this site which actually astonishes me. GMArcade is a new website that enables you to play a selection of Game Maker creations from your browser, in a similar fashion to YoYo Games’ “Instant Play” feature through the use of a Java Applet.

    Game Maker Magazine

    Another new Game Maker Magazine has been launched. Yep that’s its name “Game Maker Magazine”. (gmc link) Whilst GameMakerTech have to hold a caption competition to come up with a snappy slogan Game Maker Magazine has one from the start: “The Information you need to know, today“. Almost as good as the magazine name I’m […] More

    Sell Your GM Games

    Oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear. Bad website. Really, the implementation is shockingly bad – and the fact that the entire process is 0% automated only adds to the mockery. The site “of course will get 30% of your sales for hosting and selling your games“. Of course. “If the game is incomplete or is […] More

    GMPlanet Dilemma

In effect the site brings together game maker news from lots of sites and displays it all in one place making it easy for users of the software to see what […] More

    Days offline

    At 64digits “small server troubles” means several days offline because a member uploaded a malicious program. Hopeless. GameMakerTech look like they may resort to splitting up a huge tutorial – not really magazine content IMO. GameMakerBlog is doomed. More

    MarkUp Blues

    The MarkUp website is looking blue. A big improvement on the old version I think, especially because of the addition of the “All issues” page which enables you to quickly and easily download back issues. The GMKing.org forums have also been simplified. And a new promotional banner has been released, which reminds me of something […] More
