Hello from the Twin Cities

I've been on these forum for about a week, but just now realized that I haven't introduced myself. Anyway, I'm an 8th grade student from Minnesota (United States.) I have quite a few hobbies, ranging from running (recently started cross country), to novel reading. I'm also working a computer game using a program called Game Maker, which I should finish some time this winter. I consider myself a weak theist, as I am inclined to think that Christianity is probably more rational than Atheism. However, I think I have more in common with Atheists than the general population of conservative, "American," Christians.

I look forward to meeting and debating with some of you sometime in the future.

Thanks,
Reg

Game Maker is a nice little bit of software. Welcome.

Reginus · August 27, 2009, 09:45:10 PM

Cool, have you finished any games with it?

Is it free?

Yep: http://www.yoyogames.com/make

The best thing about it is that you can either use a drag&drop interface if you have no experience with programming, or you can use the built in Game Maker Language (I've heard it's similar to C) if you're looking for more options. It is intended to be used to make 2d games, but 3d games are possible (just a LOT more complicated.)

Heh, tigsource.com is a good place to post your games, but please don't mind if I ask, what is it?
