BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make
The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme

In Italian, there’s a saying for when something is really amazing: you say it’s ‘a bomb.’ In this case, I’d say it’s the perfect expression. Öoo is a bomb. Thanks @namataka.bsky.social for developing it!

Some sprite stacking stuff Emlise had worked on before Rusted Moss!

In Rusted Moss, Fern was also animated with procedural animation but you can see with a side scroller in mind.

I made a 3D action game with #GameMaker in one month! 🟡໒
It's been a crazy stunt, one that -albeit fun- I will never try again :P

You can try out a build of the game on GMI's website:

A making of is available on my patreon:

String templates are super useful, and I'm realizing a lot of #gamemaker devs aren't using them!

If like me you find it annoying to build strings by adding stuff together and calling string() on numbers, try prefixing the string with $, which allows you to put code in between {}.

I was going to make this public on Monday, but since it's all done, I figured why not pull the trigger earlier :) - www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:

Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

It's almost Christmas, right? xD I'm improving a little game I made two years ago, hoping it will be ready next month.

Well, that prototype became a very small game submitted for a jam. I'll show it to you on Tuesday.
It's always fun to experiment with sprite stacking in #GameMaker

Okay! I couldn't find any GameMaker #StarterPack so I did one.

Take a look at some great devs/studios that use @gamemaker.io, and feel free to throw suggestions! :)
