Hey!
Im a freelance indie-programmer, currently working on a larger GameMaker project that im hoping to be able to publish on steam within the next couple of months. But im a self-taught not-very-experienced-with-all-the-fancy-parts programmer, and i simply have no idea of how many things work. Including updating my game. ^^'
I want my game to continue to evolve once published, but there is a very limited amount of information on the web on how to actually update your game on Steam. How does it work with a GameMaker game?
Since the application you have of your game is just one big .exe file, do you just delete the old one and replace it with a the new .exe file? Or will that just force people to reinstall the game when they recieve the update?
