Game maker is a good program. It is certainly capable of everything tgf and mmf can do, even more i might add.

On the down side, it's very time consuming since loading individual animations requires more effort than in click programs also it requires some knowledge of programming languages. When i first started making games i downloaded a demo of tgf and a free copy of game maker, i tried both of them but in the end i chose to use tgf because GM it was too difficult for me to use. This was when i was in early high school. I studied a few courses in c++ and pascal but i still didn't use GM. Then one day my computer broke and i couldn't afford a new one so i went back to my old computer which still had a copy of gm. Desperate to make a game I started using GM and for the first time It made total sense.
When i was younger I simply couldn’t understand programming languages as I do now, in a way click programs were my game making training wheels. By saying this I do not mean to put any of you click users down. To me It does not make your games inferior because you use click programs. You are still very passionate about game making.

To answer DaVinces comment about Earthbound, yes i have played it (for wayyy too long) but i would not consider myself a fan. The experience points have probably permanently scarred me though : ) The only rpgs i can say i like are shadowrunner on the genesis, moonstone on the amiga and sweet home on the nes.

One more thing (sorry i know this has already been a super long post)I started this topic to discuss my games, I do not wish to discuss GM or clickteam. This is a sensitive issue and i do not want it to ruin a perfectly good topic and turn it into a flamefest.

What does ditto mean? is that some kind of newspeak? Anyway, I would like to reasure you that
this is not intended as a form of anti-klick subversive propaganda.

All I am saying is that from a position of considerable experience I can say with full certainty that anything I was able to script using “click” programs I am able to code using game maker to achieve perfect results. If you haven’t yet reached this stage or you don't care to then I do not blame you.
If you don’t believe this is possible that is fine, except this isn’t a matter of “faith” this is a matter of experience. Also you have ignored my request to stay on topic. How conscientious of you.

tgf is outdated (if not completely obsolete), however if I comment on newer products then there is a much higher risk of a backlash. I do not want that. This is a boring issue.

On to something more interesting… Has anyone played “Seismic death” yet ? It’s a tricky game but entirely winnable.

The first person who is able to complete the game gets a free hat!!!!

BY GRUD! This topic definitely deserves more attention I say!

My site probably has more game content than any other site here.
Please take another look at it.


Why not try my epic “Revenge of the sunfish" if you have fast Internet, or for a smaller download “Seismic death” is quite a nice game.

MMF2 is a very underrated (or under-advertised / under-distributed) product :{. It's easier to use and can do more things than GameMaker.

"tgf is outdated (if not completely obsolete), however if I comment on newer products then there is a much higher risk of a backlash. "

That's not true. TGF is kind of a 'cult' product for many klikkers ;P

Do you have a section where you can report trip reports off of your games?

No, but i might add one in the future. If you send me a message or write a "trip report" i will post it on the site or put it inside a games txt file.

How do you submit games here? Maybe i will submit a new game in a few weeks time.
