By making GameMaker free for everyone, we’re removing a major barrier so that anyone can try game making for the first time and start to unleash their inner creativity without any time limits.” STUART POOLE, GM AT YOYO GAMESĮarlier this year, YoYo Games was acquired by browser developer and consumer internet brand, Opera, with GameMaker forming the cornerstone of Opera’s new Opera Gaming division – alongside Opera GX – the world’s first browser built specifically for gamers. “Our vision has always been to try and make it as easy as possible for anyone to make their own awesome games and today’s announcement represents a major milestone in the realisation of that vision. These include the recently released Little Town tutorial designed by award-winning developer Benjamin Rivers, and Fire Jump, designed by our in-house development team.
Game creators can also access a wealth of high-quality demos and tutorials for free, created specifically to introduce new users to the fundamentals of game design and get quickly up to speed with the basics of GameMaker. While its proprietary GameMaker Language (GML) enables more advanced users to develop more detailed gaming experiences. GameMaker’s intuitive Drag and Drop (DnD) system makes it easy for anyone, regardless of previous coding experience, to make their own games.
Only if game creators wish to export to one of the many platforms supported by GameMaker, will they need to purchase a license.
With the time limited free trial period now removed, creators have as long as they like to use GameMaker’s integrated game development software to start learning how to build their own games. Learn to make games using GameMaker Studio 2 for free through the summer and beyond.
