Just updating Patreon with my videos from the last two weeks =)

Reward clarity update =)

Hey guys I've made some quick changes to the wording of the reward tiers, mostly to make them a bit shorter and easier to read. Nothing has really changed about the rewards themselves. I've clarified the wording in the $20 tier to make it clear that I'm very happy to give up some of my time to help...

"Platformer AI"

Hey guys! currently the topic of 'Platformer AI' is very highly rated on my tutorial spreadsheet, and has been for some time! What exactly would people like to see out of this? Bare in mind, we're talking about a 10-20min tutorial here, unless this is something people really want to see a series on...

May 2015 Credits screen!

Hey guys! I'm going to start uploading these as I update them at the beginning of the month. This way you can help me check if there are any spelling mistakes or missing names etc =) My process for adding the names is just to add everyone who's pledge processed in the month prior.

Your First Game! Part 6: Sound Effects

I hadn't really covered anything to do with audio at all yet so I decided to throw the simplest parts together in the beginner series.

Unlisted: Game Maker Studio: Your First Game! Part 5: Scores and Variables

So with Part 3 having been late I tricked myself into thinking it was the video for last week when actually it was just... late. So to make up for that and get us back on track I've put together two videos this week. In order to space out views for ads etc I didn't want to release them both simulta...

Game Maker Studio: Your First Game! Part 3: Asteroids & Collisions

New Article: Your first game! Part 1: Moving Around

Let me know if you find any dumb spelling mistakes. Took quite a bit of time to write this one up and make all of the images. I really like using gifs in these articles, it's very much a best of both worlds feeling for something between just text and just video. There's a lot of images though and ...

Game Maker Studio: Your First Game! Part 1: Moving around

I'm starting a new series on building and finishing something basic for beginners! It won't be a super long series but will hopefully finally give me something solid I can point to when people ask where they should start if they want to learn GM from my videos.

Game Maker Studio: Inventory Tutorial Expanded

From last week, this week's tutorial video will be coming very soon.

Major Update! Milestone changes and more.

So lets recap, there's a lot to discuss! Firstly Animex and my workshop was absolutely super awesome. I'm probably going to be writing a full blog post about how good Animex was (and always is) in the near future. Last week saw a new video on expanding the inventory system a bit and we also got an...

Article: Understanding Game Maker

Finally a new written tutorial for gamemakertutorials.com! With very little written content up there I wanted to start with the very basics. Some of you might remember this overview as being similar to my very first video tutorial on game maker basics. The info is a bit cleaned up and presented a bi...

Helloooooooo! Sorry for missing last week's update (and almost this one), but at least video consistency has been on point for January!
