Comprehensive Guide to GameMaker Studio Game Development: All You Need to Know

What is GameMaker Studio?

Twenty years ago, YoYo Games developed GameMaker with the purpose of “streamlining the production process” through the use of a drag-and-drop visual scripting tool.

GameMaker Studio is an easy user interface with specialised tools that can be customised to meet the requirements of professional programmers and video game design and programming students.

Today, GameMaker Studio 2 (GMS2), the engine’s most recent version released in March 2017, is now on the market with over 750,000 registered game creators continuously scaling.

Competitive Advantages

Most video game engine creators concentrate their efforts on excellence, creativity, and adaptability. Because of its pixel editors and unique graphics, GameMaker Studio 2 is recognised as the greatest high-end 2D game engine in this regard. Likewise, the following are some of the software’s benefits:

One’s programming language
Rapid data processing
Basic interface design
Cross-platform
Improved files
App Store purchases
Network administrator

Famous Games Developed Using GameMaker Studio

Quite a few games created from the software have gotten mainstream success after being translated from GML’s basic code to computer and TV screens across many platforms.

Let’s take a look at some of the games that managed to gain popularity.

Undertale

Of the games made with GameMaker, this has undoubtedly received the most favourable reviews. The fantastic and retro-style RPG Undertale lets you interact with various colourful characters, choose whether to engage in combat with them and move the intriguing and humorous plot along. It can be played on Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and the Nintendo Switch. It was created and released by Toby Fox.

You don’t need to battle anyone in Undertale, which makes it unique. It’s a role-playing game where you can completely avoid combat. This means you can befriend players, talk to them, and more.

Hotline Miami

Hotline Miami is a video game created independently by Jonatan Söderström and Dennis Wedin (Dennaton Games). It was first published and made available by Devolver Digital on October 23, 2012, for Windows. Later versions of the game were released for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

Hotline Miami is a high-octane action game with plenty of savagery, tough gunplay, and head-crushing close combat. You will take on the role of a strange guy on a deadly spree against the seedy underworld at the command of voices on your answering machine in this game, which is set in an alternate 1989 Miami.

Deadly enemies continually outnumber you, so you must use your wits to manoeuvre through seeming impossibilities. Every shot is instantly fatal; therefore, you must move quickly if you want to survive long enough to discover the evil forces behind the killings.

Katana Zero

In 2019, Devolver Digital released the 2D action platform video game Katana Zero for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Nintendo Switch. Askiisoft created Katana ZERO.

Similar to Hotline Miami, Katana Zero has no health indicator and will suddenly die if hit. The player moves through side-scrolling levels while making an effort to eliminate all of the enemies there with his sword or by setting up traps.

The player may slow time with a meter that steadily fills, deflects bullets with his sword, rolls away from attacks, and climbs up walls to avoid them. A real-time communication system is another game feature that the player can interrupt.

Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove

In 2014, Yacht Club Games created the wildly successful 2D side-scrolling game Shovel Knight. It has received a lot of praise for its classic side-scroller style, which takes players back to the days of Castlevania and Ghosts ‘n Goblins.

You can find and play the game on Amazon Fire TV, Microsoft Windows, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Switch, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Wii U, and Xbox One.

Players in Shovel Knight side-scroll while engaging in combat with Order of No Quarter members. The character Shovel Knight employs his shovel for various unusual and exciting purposes, both as a weapon and a tool for locating hidden riches.

By travelling all the way to the right of the screen, eliminating enemies, and-most importantly-collecting treasure with their shovel, the player must advance to the stage’s end in classic video game style.

FAQs

Does GameMaker use C++?

As a programming language, GameMaker Studio employs its GameMaker Language. It features elements of C++ and C# as well as JavaScript. The runtime system, which is where you put all the commands you entered in, actually uses C++.

What kinds of games can be made?

GameMaker Studio can create a huge variety of games. Luckily for you, many well-known games created with GameMaker Studio are firmly rooted in genres we are familiar with.

Can you make 3D games in GameMaker?

Yes, but we don’t recommend it. GameMaker Studio allows you to create 3D games in addition to 2D ones. However, it is probably not the best option for creating 3D content. It’s not bad, but the 2D construction is more optimised than 3D.
