Administrators, moderators, and users are <i>still</i> pretending that I'm not trying to improve our community through improving n00b grammar and spelling. I'm pretty sure that writing this isn't helping, but it sure is fun using fieldsets.</fieldset>

After checking out <a href="http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=858" target=_blank>the Darkstar Game System</a>, and, frankly, thinking I could do better, I've started a new side-project (next to my mini-first-person-shooter thing, TOPDOWN, and Conflict: Online…and that's not counting all of the PHP projects). So, an hour and a half later than I should be awake, here's the concept for the main window, with the "Games" pane active. <b>(Click for full view)</b>

Yes, I know…a lot of the fonts were too small or unreadable. I apologize; I used Fireworks MX for the entire thing.

In other random news, Yourself has released <a href="http://forums.gamemaker.nl/index.php?showtopic=215017" target=_blank>his Gregex regular expressions DLL</a>. I highly suggest checking it out if you know regular expressions at all, and can think of any awesome way to use them in your game.

And, um…yeah. Not much more news for today. Unless I come back with <a href="http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid=takua108&cmd=comments&id=3888" target=_blank>some controversial Mac-related topic that gets me like, a billion replies</a>.

So until next time…don't stay up as late as I am right now when you have school the next day. It makes you look like you smoked enough marijuana to fill an…um…house.

Why not? If you could get both finished Game Maker-made games as well as utilities, GM5-GM6 editables, and media for any of the above (screenshots and such) would you be interested?
