Well I'm new to 64Digits (relativly) but not to game development nor Game Maker.
I first started developing games in 1997 using a program called Klick 'n' Play (no code but propostional logic) this help me as I started programming Visual Basic getting a A* in GCSE IT and A grade A' level in Computing. In 2004 I started Software Engineering BSc degree at Newcastle University, making games in GM all the way. Then I changed my course to Games and Virtual Enviroments.I'm due to graduate this summer.Having never really finished a GM game due to lack of interest or i just thought it was a bad concept, I'm not at all known in the GMC.At present I have a phew games in development the biggest and most important being a MMO game written in Java for my dissertation using a brand new never before implemented architecture. Another game in development is a horse racing game for a mobile phone, many more games are in development but not important enough to mention.More of my games present past and never done can be found at my website.

I remember Klick 'n' Play.Welcome to 64D. =)The fact that Java doesn't use pointers makes it HORRIBLE.But I use it anyway. =DI too remember Klick 'n' Play, either through looking for a game maker or from a free CD, never actually did anything with it though.
Welcum
I herd java compiles basicly same as gamemaker (not sure if u knew tht or not)mattwell java is a hybrid it is only partly compiled the rest is iterpreted (probably the main reason why its slower than compiled languages)
