It's silly to see procedurally generated content called "AI generated slop" because it really isn't. Procedural generation takes skills, generative AI does not.

My sister knows me so well…

I'd like to propose an update to Article 2 that requires basic math literacy in order to be eligible to run for president of the united states

my 2020+ gm videos now have a cumulative million views in five and a half years wonder what'll happen in the next five years...

"setting object sprites in the room editor" is my favorite addition to gamemaker in possibly ever @gamemaker.io youtube.com/shorts/r7B69...

it's kind of impressive how consistently these snek plants are growing, regardless of how frequently i water them (compare to the cacti which kind of explode briefly and then go back to doing nothing whenever they get water)

Oh right I forgot something: the actual link to the steam page. store.steampowered.com/app/2769920/...

Update for the Wizarducks demo is now live on Steam! We're now spending a lot more time making content for the full game, now that the basic stuff is sorted out. #gamedev #gamemaker

Do you all think the text is easier to read with the outline, or the drop shadow? I've seen people argue both but I think I'm actually leaning towards the drop shadow, at least on certain types of fonts. Probably make them both an accessibility setting but I'm not sure which should be the default

@allis.ink We're looking at using some of your font(s) for graphic design for Wizarducks. I'd say it's going well so far... www.fontspace.com/emotional-ba...

I want a personal apology from each and every person who went off on me for calling him a wannabe-dictator over the last 9 years

hmm, apparently YouTube now has a "Premium Lite" program that's like half price and just turns off ads without all of the other stuff. people have been asking for this for ages, it's kind of weird that they just rolled it out without any fanfare? www.youtube.com/premiumlite

This is Tuffy. He is the only example of taking up the whole sidewalk that is not only justifiable, but encouraged. 14/10 (IG: mypittuffy)

Been messing with Split Screen and multiple viewports in #gamemaker for a tutorial -you know- so I can speak a bit more authoritatively on certain subjects. And, holy shit, I was not prepared for the madness that is "positioning and sizing" your viewports.

added command line testing to GMBenchmark #GameMaker dragonite.itch.io/gmbenchmark/...

every once in a while i get someone doing this to me in the comments section of a random SciShow or Digital Foundry video or something

wrote a fun little pathfinding debug visualization #GameMaker #gamdev

Disclaimer xkcd.com/3126/

found my gamemaker/unity export on another hard drive, I decided to play around a little bit with editor scripting so that we can visually see connections between relevant objects. would be really neat if we had something like this in the #gamemaker room editor >:(

i dont wanna hear anyone calling video game baddies "contrived" or "unrealistic" ever again

i wonder how much mileage we can get out of just this one spell #gamemaker

This is Shadow and Ollie. Shadow can be seen here attempting to eat his brother. And based on Ollie's reaction, this is not the first time. 13/10 for both

the "civility in politics" people have been awful quiet recently

instance_change and position_change are dead #GameMaker

Hmm, we'll see where this goes, I guess. blog.youtube/news-and-eve...

so during the last few weeks we decided to change how character sprites are rendered, basically using indexed color to make for easy palette swaps. i can't get over how cool the indexed sprites look

I think my friends and I have decided on the best character in Mario Kart World

EBF5 lets play officially hit a million views, glad you all seemed to like it!

This is Koda. He is approximately 70% fluffy and 30% floppy. An ideal ratio. 13/10 would pet enthusiastically (IG: koda_and_wrigley)

davinci resolve, day 1: + much more powerful than PE, though i doubt i'll ever use most of the advanced stuff + free version is absolutely insane + default video transitions are more absurd + i can import mkv recordings from obs without having to remux them + queue multiple exports

verdict on davinci resolve so far: it seems pretty good, i've been able to get it to do most of what i need it to do without too much trouble, i have to re-learn (or re-configure) all of the keyboard shortcuts that i've been used to from like 15 years of using PE though

premiere elements makes windows 11 implode for some reason apparently so i'm trying out davinci resolve for video editing. exploring the UI and i have a sudden desire to use the silliest clip transitions that i can find in all future gamemaker videos

This week's comic: Best Brothers foxtrot.com/2025/05/18/b...

finally got around to planning a video that's been on my list for like a year #gamemaker

anyone wanna see one of the most cursed bugs i've ever found in #GameMaker github.com/YoYoGames/Ga...
