I just need to be able to eat and get around and I don't have a real income. People turn me away when I show up to interviews no matter how done-up I get for them. Just actually too big and ugly. Please take a look at my art and consider throwing some money at me if it moves you to. I'm trying.

all of the official documentation surrounding sequences seems to suggest they expect you to mostly be building these through code. and i guess that is supposed to explain/justify why the editor for them is so limited? why did they make it like this? idk. i love gamemaker, but always found this odd

like, in the sequence editor, you can assign "moments" to specific frames to have functions/scripts trigger. sounds great, until you see it doesn't let you supply any arguments? so unless I am misunderstanding, they expect you to make a bunch of bespoke one-off functions for all of your sequences?🤔

every time I attempt to use GameMaker's "sequences" for something, I am reminded of why I have never used them for anything and always end up using my own homemade workarounds. does anyone use them often? they seem really powerful for a couple niche things but have some oddly specific limitations

this is super nerdy to say but AI is kind of like 1:1 with the happy boxes from mother 3. it resembles tv but actually isn't, theyre just flashing colors on a screen that act as jingling keys injected by big Pigmask artificially into an unknowing populace

#GameMaker tip of the day: there's a bunch of secret hotkeys for folding regions, most notably Ctrl+M which folds EVERYTHING. Perfect if you only want the stuff you're currently working on open in a 5000-line script! #gamedev #indiedev

colorful digital artwork of a woman with a pained expression on her face, and she appears to be de-materializing or evaporating. she is rendered mostly in gray tones, meanwhile the background is oozing with random bright colors.

if any trans person wants to learn audio/video editing, I can probably get you going in like a one hour discord call. I can’t find you work, but I can tell you how to do what I do. Message me and we’ll figure it out.

CATCH THE CLOWN is a surrealist "action real-time-strategy" adventure set within a hostile piece of 90s art software. Follow your heart.

I just don't understand what I'm supposed to do as a solo dev who tries my best to make it happen. what do you mean "we can't do anything with that?" I really hate this idea that a game gets stale literally the instant it releases. "we can't do anything with that"?? what do you mean??

pretty much! i made the model in magicavoxel and exported as png. then in gamemaker i have each layer draw with an angular offset that increases when the character rotates, which sort of mimics the "rolling shutter effect"

Seeing every small business, be it a local restaurant, a moving company, whatever, all having AI logos and AI ads, really puts into perspective just how many artists are out of jobs now. All those little sustaining jobs where someone just needed a quick thing for $50 to $200 are just gone.
