Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to make computer/video games. I remember doing some really simple visual basic programs to make a set of dice for D&D, which was such a hassle when it actually came to playing- firing up the computer, loading the program and selecting dice, when I could just roll in the real world. Ha! It continued on with making some 8 bit games for a college class a few years ago with one of the older iterations of gamemaker. The latest push to making 8-16 bit games again is a means to an end. I am building a raspberry pi/arduino arcade cabinet and I will be loading all of the emulators and games onto it for my partner's birthday, and I want to make the first game loaded about her and her dog, an adventure/platform game. I know, cue barf emoji! After I finish that specific game, I want to continue to create games that I can also eventually flash to carts, and perhaps add cartridge functionality to the cabinet. I'm in the process of trying to do the adventure tutorial and I am running into the compatibility problems between 4.0.06 and 4.0.11. I will trawl through the forums before I ask too many questions. Hopefully when time permits we will have a new tutorial video or assets package that are compatible with the new version.
It is great to see our childhood dreams becoming a possibility because of the hard work of Joe, Austin and everyone involved in this.
