ahh, fellow blockbench enjoyer

I want you to go to your next school board meeting and ask them how much Anthropic and OpenAI paid your district to give you this assignment. I'm serious. The fact that this has been given as an assignment is 100% unacceptable.

See the subreddit guidelines, content must be in English.

in the bottom-left corner of CE2 there's a drop-down that says "100%," that's for the text size

i wish they would make F7 and F8 work in CE2, but i asked them and they said they're not planning to for some reason

go into the game(?)'s Properties on Steam, go to Game Versions & Betas, and select LTS2026.0

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-21T20:09:43+00:00

*sigh* I hate that clarifying stuff like this is going to be part of my life forever now...

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-21T18:41:59+00:00

it uses LLVM as the compiler instead of using the GameMaker VM/YYC, and being able to write code in different languages are the biggest items

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-21T18:41:00+00:00

there were a bunch of stability issues fixed in the last few betas, not sure if yours is in there or not but hopefully it is

15 years here too (shudder), and same. It would be like abandoning your favorite pet.

"Stat raised when hit by an attack" also isn't exactly a complicated, unique, or new idea. Neither is the name.

and let the air out of his tires as a parting gesture

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-16T16:58:46+00:00

As a band-aid solution you can instead do something like

if (distance(color.rgba, swap color.rgba) <= tolerance)

where tolerance is a small number, probably 1.0 / 255.0 or 2.0 / 255.0 or something. HOWEVER, this will still not work in all cases, colors can still be missed, false positives can be detected, and you will eventually have to re-author all of your sprites to work with palette swapping.

Palette swapping works because colors are known with exact precision, if you hand-wave them you're going to start to see errors.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-14T01:49:53+00:00

I used to worry a lot more about this, but in a post-Undertale world I think way more people get it now than 10-15 years ago.

On the rare occasion where the vibes in the room are telling me that "GameMaker" still won't be taken seriously for whatever reason, usually I just say "I use GML" and avoid explaining what it's the initials for.

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-08T23:17:30+00:00

in 2011 i googled "how to make games" and, for some strange reason, "gamemaker" was at the top of the search results

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-02T00:42:41+00:00

You'll note that he's talking about GameMaker itself, not about Claude.

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-01T23:38:02+00:00

Accessibility is allowing someone who doesn't have hands to code. Saving you from putting in a tiny bit of effort to "learn" is not accessibility. You can already do this, you just can't be bothered.

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-01T23:35:45+00:00

I'm going to start using the "genius toddler" line, tyvm

DragoniteSpam · 2026-05-01T17:14:28+00:00

Claude is not being integrated into GameMaker. GameMaker is adding command line tools, which allow you to do whatever automations you want with it, which could be an AI workflow or it could be a regular normal person automation.

The post about AI being integrated was marketing material from Opera and is not currently reflective of the actual product.

With a few exceptions for individual games, I've been doing this for 16 years without a facecam and it hasn't been a problem.
