at first i wasn't going to do this whole blog thing until i noticed everybody is doing it (yeah following the crowd, what ever…) so with 66 hits on my page i mine as well say something.
where to start?i guess i could explain my history with Game Maker… not much. i started with GM6 before YYG was up, didn't really get into the GMC at the time, not until 2009 oddly enough. When YYG was up i thought it was a great idea, i became a member the minute the site went up (i'm very active there even now)this means i have about 4 years or so of GM experience. though there were many times i wouldn't use it for months. i'm 100% involve with GM as of 2009, on it daily/weekly working on so many projects.i have a website i written in HTML mostly, here at:http://DZgames.99k.org/you can take a look at all the blog updates there and all the games i have up. around 10 or so by now, i'm not counting.and now to present a little something that i'm working on currently. it's an online battle game in Under60seconds style. here's a screenshot showing it's beautiful lighting and particle system ^^http://i795.photobucket.com/albums/yy240/deathzero021/awesomelight.png(this is actually an older screenshot but that's all you get for now)
People on this site have opinions, its annoying.
How did you find this site?
umm good question… i can't remember lol. i think Mega told me about it so i checked it out and became a member just for the sake of it. there are a few things i like about the site actually, mainly the front page showing newly uploaded games instead of featured games. it's great for getting plays on all the games.
Yo, death21. We're, primarily, a community here. Part of being a community is accepting that others are different - this isn't a forum, and as such there are no strict "on topic" rules. If people talk about shit you don't like in your blog comments, don't reply to it. This is a pretty easy going site, but first impressions count, and they count hard.
I'm sorry if we seem like ass-hats but we really do want to see your game/website improve/succeed. About the website, you should really make the background color darker. I usually keep the brightness of my screen to a minimum (around 40%) and the background still bugs me.
lol okay i'll try to change the background whenever i can. as for the square characters, they'll be staying as the game is a follow up of my previous game. i know, i don't like them that much either but i'm not great with graphics and i focus more on gameplay so hopefully people can get over it.
