WARNING - GAME IS BUGGY AND THIS IS NOT THE FINAL RELEASE. IF YOU EXPERIENCE ERROR BOXES, PLEASE RESTART THE PROGRAM.
I'm gonna start making little arcade games in Game Maker. Here is my first one. The only controls are the mouse, aim and shoot. There are all these enemies coming down from the top of the screen, and you have to shoot them. It will throw them back a little bit, but not off the screen. You have to keep shooting them to get them off of the screen. You have so much ammo - shown by the big white bar at the top of the screen. It regenerates slowly. Will post screenshots later Screenshots and download link below - have fun!!! ;D

Looks cool. I was afraid I was the only one here who used gamemaker. ;D

Oh cool, this works by using Wine ;) It's cool, but I think it's too easy, it's just pressing the mouse button a few million times above our sprite. If we always shoot up, we almost never die (we just have to slightly change right or left).
So I recommend less balls but we are in the middle and the balls come from different directions, that would be much better!
Nevertheless, nice job!

I have the balls programmed to come from random places, then move toward you. And this works with Wine? Every Game Maker game I tried never worked with Wine. Does it look like the screenshots?

keoni29 is using game maker too (afaik)
Nice game Spyro!
-
Nice. I kinda like it. :D

This isn't dead - I'm just working (pretty slowly) on my next two projects.

Cool to hear. Are you also planning to keep us updated on your programming device by the way? (In your old topic)

Maybe, probably. I lost my concept notebook again x.x but I have an entirely new idea, a tablet PC sized device that would be a tall rectangle. Half of it would be a screen, and the other half would be a keyboard.
-
Ah cool. One cool thing though would be some sort of ipad like device, but small enough to fit into most pockets, while still being larger than an ipod touch. But a keyboard would be nice too, because sometimes typing on a touchscreen can be a bit annoying, especially if you are eating while doing so.

Yes, it runs fast and nicely, no bugs nor errors.
