Hello everyone, just joined in time for the jam. I'm a semi-decent pixel artist who got into video game development by volunteering to do art for someone else's game three years ago and wound up being programmer somehow. That about sums it up. I've been messing around with Gamemaker for much longer then that, but as for serious work, I've only really started as of six months ago. It's good to be here.

I've been using Game Maker since 2012 but barely scratched the surface. Coming back to it now, hoping to dedicate more time to learning and creating with it.

Any cool games you've made: Only one game where my wife and I could connect accross the internet and guess the other's secret code. I made it using
RealBasic. I plan to re-make it with GameMaker.

Personality Type: Have never bothered to find out. Semi-social (enjoy solitude but also enjoy being amongst people without actually interacting with anyone). I can lead but prefer to work behind the scenes.

Other things about yourself: Enjoy playing guitar, singing and listening to any kind of music (preferring blues, salsa, and any song that tells a story).
I have played games since Pong, witnessed the emergence of the internet, dial-up connections (still remember when connecting at 14.4 Kbps was fast!), bulletin board, CompuServe, AOL, the newsgroups and the web. Planning to retire in 5 years and dedicate a lot more time to programming.

Hey! I get to introduce myself all over again.
I'm to Create, as I've always been. I'm currently 24 years old and live a happy life in the wet soggy mire that is the Netherlands.
I've used Game Maker since I was young, maybe 12 or 14 or so, and over time I've grown proficient at using it. Although I rarely find time to actually make anything, and I've moved on to other IDE's for many projects, it's still a hobby of mine to just screw around with it and test random ideas.

Name: M
Age: almost 40, bru
Where you're from: 3 oh fizzy
How long you've been using Game Maker: OMG, 2011?

Any cool games you've made: Yes. They are not age appropriate, if you are of age, search XMF on Steam. I am working real hard to improve my games with each passing title. My first working game was back in 2012. No where to go but up! I have been flirting with other Engines but really enjoy GM's UI and I actually joined up because I cannot find an article anywhere to address some production concerns I have. I make mainly Brawlers and 1 on 1 Fighters, love scripting and GML is way chiller than C# IMO.


Personality Type: I focus my mind on being accepting of others and I have been doing some deep digging to break my mind off toxic thinking cycles. I have made amazing progress with anger management in 20 years and currently I am focusing my thought patterns to stray from my subconscious voice that has a tendency for me to over compensate as a human struggling with insecurities from my teenage years. I focus on trying to be a good person. My games are silly, for 18+ & people looking for something funny and obscure.

Other things about yourself:
Meh?

I haven't used GM for a little while now but I'm getting that random urge to get back into it and mess around with it again. I was pretty active on the old forum until it was shut down. Hopefully I can get back into it again and make some cool stuff and help other people out.

Other things about yourself:
My ultimate goal is to make a game for the Switch, which is why I came back to GameMaker now that my NDA is up with my previous company. So I will probably be asking a lot of questions regarding Switch functionality. I enjoy using the drag and drop block coding versus what's in Unity or Unreal.

Game Maker: I downloaded it this morning and am looking forward to getting my first go of it.

Any cool games you've made:
Some pretty poor attempts at Unity, I'm trying to become a better programmer which this will hopefully help with!

Personality Type:
Hmm I'm a man with a job and a family so I don't have a lot of time. but I want this to be my job so I'll be working hard whenever I have a moment.

Other things about yourself:
I'm an Artist/Graphic Designer (My Avatar is an old oil painting of mine) turned Animator, with a long history as a Sound Engineer and Music Producer I'll be linking to that stuff when I get to link stuff. Other than that, I'm hoping to get the games I have in my head out into the real world and hopefully people will enjoy them, I base them off pen and paper rpg's I play with my friends from time to time. It would be great to work with others on some projects which is why I joined the forum. I'd be happy to concept, animate, sprite and even produce the music. Seriously I'll link to it all and if you read all this thanks time is much appreciated. (> o_o)> <----- Kirby
