Most of it is hard code not events starfish. Think before you post dipstuff. Game maker is like any other compiler just more user friendly.
I'm sorry, but I really do think that Game Maker is lame. Programming is programming, it isn't more "hard core" if you use a visual drag and drop language, or a text syntax considering that it's all logic. Besides in GM, drag and drop programming is basically a watered-down visual wrapper, if you may. That's not the problem. I tend to dislike Game Maker because it is restricting in a manner that chokes speed and graphics rendering abilities in compiled software. Game Maker is not on par with mainstream compilers.

Aside from the fact of you using Game Maker, the game itself is "alright". I realize that it's in pre-beta/alpha but it just doesn't seem to capture any attention. It's lifeless, story and all and everything seems forced.. I think that you should add some more innovative gameplay to the mix, or suffer from a mediocre game. Good luck!

People still insult GM? Stupids.



I am coming from it at a programming standpoint. I am not insulting games made with the software. Good games have been made with things far worse than Gamer Maker, it just shows the power of human ingenuity.

This game make me feel happy in pants...

is this good?

THIS GAME HAS AWFUL CONTROL!



Use my medkits I DON'T CARE IF THEY'RE LOP SIDED

:D

Find any bugs yet though? Because yoga's having some weird lighting glitches on level 2.


Not really. I just fall alot on there :3.

I was somewhat interested at first, but then I saw this

Not the error message, the graphics. Those look god-awful.
