Hello all its been a while since i have posted on here but i had an error on my pc and it needed a full reinstall meaning ive lost everything, Windows 10 automatically updated itself in the middle of the night and when i woke up and turned on my pc it was stuck in a boot loop that had no way whatsoever of fixing it.
I was new to game maker but making progress and i completed 3 very small games, the problem is that whenever i needed a part in a new game and it was in an old game i would copy and paste it over from one game to the other instead of fully typing the code myself (to save time) after the reboot i have lost everything i was working on aswell as my completed games, i really am having to start from scratch. Even lost a game i was developing that i spent 1 and a half years developing, that game will never be the same as i cant for the life of me even remember where i started on that one.
Im willing to take this negative and try turn it into a positive and hope i can create that same game but better, i feel tho that i need to start right back at the very beginning and seeing as i have one of my very small games on itch.io im thinking of downloading that game and playing it to get used to the feel of it and then trying to recreate the game as a reboot with updated visuals and added extras, as it was the first game i ever made i feel that this would be a good way to do things.
what do you guys think? and before you all say i should have saved all of my data on an external HD i know that but you just dont expect it to happen and it caught me completely off guard and i will be saving every thing to a new drive from now on.
