Do you want to develop computer games without spending countless hours learning how to become a programmer? Then you've come to the right place. Game Maker allows you to make exciting computer games, without the need to write a single line of code. Creating games with Game Maker will be a lot of fun.
Using easy to learn drag-and-drop actions, you can create professional looking games within very little time. You can make games with backgrounds, animated graphics, music and sound effects, and even 3D games!
And when you've become more experienced, there is a built-in programming language, which gives you the full flexibility of creating games with Game Maker. What is best, is the fact that Game Maker can be used free of charge.
You can do anything you want with the games you produce, you can even sell them! Also, if you register your copy of Game Maker, you can unlock extra functions, which extend the capabilities of the program. Game Maker comes preloaded with a collection of freeware images and sounds to get you started.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Option added to force Software Vertex Processing when Direct3D is initialised, this should solve some driver issues and restores GM8.0 behaviour (NOTE: This will be slow rendering down but may improve compatibility)
· Added several new GML functions (NOTE: No Help entries just yet)
· clamp( number, min, max ) - returns number once it has been clamped between the min and max values
· lerp( val1, val2, amount ) - returns val1 + ((val2 - val1) * amount). (NOTE: amount is not clamped, but is expected to be in 0..1 range)
