Game Maker

Posted in: Everyday

When I was a freshman/sophmore in college, I had alot of free time on my hands. And of course, you always find something to fill that free time. I don’t recall how I stumbled across this or even why I started researching it, but I took an interest in making my own games.

There are alot of different programs out there for the non-experienced programmer, which is what I was at the time, having never done any type of complicated coding like VB or C.

I found this program called Game Maker and, for a period of time, was hooked. I researched how to make sprites, recommendations for coloring, anything game related, I searched, found, and covetted. And during that time, I made a total of 2 games using the tutorials as guides.

Unfortunately, I don’t have copies of those games anymore.

However, it occurred to me last night that I was going to have alot of free time on my hands extremely soon. And I thought, why not?

I’m adding Game Maker once more to my list of desired programs to understand. And, thought, I’d pass this onto others as well.

    I have played with the tool before, but because of the aforementioned lack of time, I was never able to get much done with it.
