    YoYo Games

    Why is it that ever since GM got on the YoYo train, the GMC started getting a sudden flood of an average of 5 (this is a Probably Not CorrectTM statistic) complaint and/or problem topics a day? It’s just whining of Softwrap, issues with their (ugh) Rails powered website or just general complaining? Come to […] More

    YoYoGames Reinstated

    In a change of fortune it has been announced by YoYoGames that they have been reinstated into Mashable’s Open Web Awards. Voting opens on Monday. What a mess. Not sure why this means so much to so many at the GMC… More

    YoYoGames Disqualified!

    Despite receiving around 25% of the nominations YoYo have failed to reach the final 10 nominations for Mashable’s Open Web Awards, disqualified because the nominations “came from the exact IP address several times.” YoYo’s James Peddie doesn’t seem to be too pleased, and if I were him I wouldn’t be either. In my opinion these […] More

    Quantity is Good

    In a message on his blog Mark has reiterated the fact that YoYoGames is for all Game Maker made games and not just the best as the total number of games on the YoYo website exceeded 10,000. This responds to some criticism on the GMC where some people have come up with the crazy idea […] More

    YoYo Host GameMaker 7 Pro Crack

    You would think that YoYoGames would be fighting against cracks. Apparently not. I wrote a post in August highlighting my experiences of contacting YoYo regarding the presence of Game Maker 6 cracks on YouTube – they just didn’t care. Fair enough I suppose given that YoYoGames only took over Game Maker from version 7, and […] More

    Not News

    Apparently it’s not news but I’m glad to see YoYo have been keeping the community informed of what has been going on recently. Online highscore tables are a feature being investigated. More

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

    Cynical view of 22nd September YoYo News

    More possible platforms. Nothing definite. Wait until at least next year to hear anything more. “We’ve signed a maintenance agreement with our Web Developers which means more regular site updates and tweaks. Starting next week, this will happen at least twice a month. “ Twice monthly updates, how revolutionary… More

    Support YoYo Games!

    In the latest post on YoYo Games’ Glog, Sandy asks Game Maker users to support the company by introducing their “friends and family” to it. Essentially, he wants more people to click the ads on the site so they can make more money. With Instant Play now up and running, people don’t need to worry […] More

    YoYoGames’ Forum o’doom

    The one half-decent thing that the YoYoGames forums had going for them was the fact that members were not allowed signatures. However, this rule has changed so now we look forward to tacky animated banners and huge images on an already slow site, oh joy. Quite why YoYoGames needed their own forum I don’t know. […] More

    YoYo’s Second Staging

    YoYoGames have been working on ‘Staging 2′ of YoYoGames.com As I first asked in June “How long, I ask you, do you think it will be before YoYo start putting adverts on their site? No adverts at first to soften the blow, and then once everyone has started using them up the ads will go.” […] More
