    Yet Another Magazine

    …Although this one is actually decent awesome. Russell’s Quarterly doesn’t really have that much of an focus on Game Maker, but game design instead, with reviews of the games Hunter’s Island, Fedora Spade, Death Worm and Shush. It’s also a 72 page read. …And an awesome simplistic black and white layout that doesn’t lag Acrobat to […] 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

    January Magazines (MarkUp 11, GMTech 10)

Both because of the possibility of the magazines introducing new features and changes, and because over the Christmas period there could have been either a torrent or lack of submissions depending on the particular contributers. Download MarkUp Issue 11 | Download […] More

    December Magazine Releases

    Download GMTech Issue 9 Download MarkUp Issue 10 (December) The past few days have seen both Game Maker magazines releasing their latest issues, one considerably more seasonal than the other.

The quality of the content in GMT has been improving issue by issue at a steady rate but it still lacks a regular release date. That said the November Issue of MarkUp was released behind […] More

    MarkUp Magazine: Issue 9

    The November issue of the MarkUp game development magazine is now available for download. The release was, rather unusually for MarkUp, delayed for a few days because of a dip in the number of contributions received following many previous successful issues. Robin opens the magazine, rather bizarrely in my opinion, by mentioning his love of […] More

    Contributing relations

    Not another GameMakerTech versus MarkUp post – oh yes. Being the controversial guy that I am I can’t leave it alone, at least not this time when I look at the differing attitudes that the magazines have with their contributors. Two magazines, tens of thousands of GameMaker users you would have thought those that had […] More
