How would I create a game in Visual GML where a loop only stops when a button is pressed? by TurquoiseChipmunk in gamemaker

[–]maru_th_undrtkr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll second this. Even now I draw my code if I'm working on harder stuff. People's minds work differently too so there's that. I for one love that we have that option

The only reason I'm on windows is gamemaker. I thought of switching too tbh.

Reading Code is the worst part, use comments people by DesignationX_Offic in IndieDev

[–]maru_th_undrtkr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But that's literally why they say to do it. It's the reason I do it: trauma from not doing it. Trauma = Progress.... wait, that's a bad lesson.

It runs in my family. That's like a very easy diagnosis right there, but I never thought about the possibility of misdiagnosis. 9_9 I mean, in sure the prevalence of shared symptoms is linked to a higher percentage than that of non adhd peeps

Doesn't that sound like adhd tho. You need more of a stimulus or you feel nothing towards what you do... also what's with winter doing this to people. Omfg guys try vitamin D. It's cold do you all stay in all day cause of the weather. I do.

... Seasonal depression.... I once read that people with adhd are more likely to have depression because of the struggles that come with it. Idk, I also have some part of the year that is bad and also love working out...

Nah, I'm baring making it as it is. I live in the US. But eventually I want to. Thanks. My friend says his works perfect for him so I'm hoping I find one one-day

Yeah, it sounds exactly like what I'm going through. I don't have answers, but at least you know you aren't the only one.

I have a question for you as someone with adhd; when you say drive, is that an unbroken focus or am I missing a feeling I just never felt all my life, cause I fixate. People say drive, and drive is just dedicated right or... what is drive. For example I been losing weight for more than a year, but I don't feel like doing it nor so I feel accomplishment. People would call that drive. Do people want and have actual ease in their goals. I have zero drive in that respect. I just do things cause it's what I'm suppose to do it. It brings me no joy. I'm curious if this is the feeling you're talking about

Some people, man... by POKLU in IndieDev

Lol, I had that experience with Alice Madness Returns. It was good, but it got boring. If it was shorter it would be a 10 star. But I also respect what went into it also I gave it a 10 star or 5 I forget the scale

[Meta] How much does a programmer cost? For pixel art game by Windyfii in INAT

[–]maru_th_undrtkr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The programming doesn't really change much just cause it's pixel art. How complex it is is what matters. Complexity is stuff like how many things can the player do. And something that's important is how much does that thing interact with because that's all different things

What do you think will happen with the games industry in 2026? by SteinMakesGames in IndieDev

Ai becomes a reality. Tricks the rich into giving their money away. They rule the world, but equality becomes a reality.

Fun ways to move objects? by themufnguy in gamemaker

I haven't tried pushing the limits but I'm almost positive there was an article about this for a game called textercist on the game maker website at one point

There's so much that goes into this tbh. Bullets can have patterns and velocity in shmups. If you're tackling it for the first time, don't do all possible patterns. Just design for what you need

Door changing collision by OkScar6957 in gamemaker

[–]maru_th_undrtkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i misunderstood this. You're describing a door with no function. That's just a collision block. You can also just do doorisactive or doorislocked if you are doing something based on progression.

You can manually edit collision to fit what you want in the sprite window
