Wuts A Good Game Maker Program?

whats a good game maker program where i can add them to my site?

well, i never heard of wuts as a game maker program, what is the site?
sorry, just kidding. i use gamemaker http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. it's made by a dutch professor, mark overmars (not the dutch soccer-player ) it's simple, but not very easy. once you understand the system, you can work with it really well, but you need to think really logical to debug it. would you decide to make a game with gamemaker, post it!

There aren't any I'm afraid, the only programs for making games are used for making games to play in Windows. If you want to make a game for on your site you have to learn a language like Java I think.
Unless it's meand for downloading and then playing with a TCP/IP connection. If you want that I can highly recommend GameMaker, see this topic for more details. Click here to download GM.

In Game Maker (www.gamemaker.nl/) you can make great games even 3D games (psuedo 3d actually) very easily, and there is an amazing support forum where you can get all the help you need. (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/) As long as you don't try something extremely big you will make your first game soon, and can make harder and harder things.

Depending on what type of things you want to do in the game you could always make the game in flash.... but you probably want a free game making program or at least one that is less complicated then flash and Actionscipt....

This link will help you out alot. You will love me.

If you want games for your site, you might want to try flash games, as they are very popular. Though Flash is very expensive if you're planning on buying it, but you can make simple games without using much actionscript.

Well it depends on what you want.If you want to make a Text Based this is a premade code pack Text Based RPG game. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Details:-Internet Info Table-Multiple Polls-Hidden Polls-CAPTCHA Test on Registration-User can be rewarded an item and/or crystals for succeeding a crime (as well as just money)-User can goto jail for failing a crime-Jail added-Crime XP system added-Improved User info on login-Attacking, mugging, leaving, hosping etc.-Major Item Overhaul-Database drivers-Improved cronjobs-Contacts list-New fresh Skin-Settings table which means you don't have to edit files such as donator.php to fill in your PP address or header.php to change your game name, you just set a setting =)-General Optimization (reduced Queries in a lot of files)-Player Notes-Lucky Boxes-Send Crystals (can be turned off/on in settings)-Bank Xfers (can be turned off/on in settings)-HallofFame Filters (non-donators, donators, or all users)-Delete All Events-Fully Featured Staff PanelMCC1 mods Included in the MCC2 package by default:-Polling Booth*-Advanced Attacking*-Forums*-Player Notes-Lucky Boxes-Installer/Upgrader-Upgrade Advisor (diagnoses your MCC1 game to see if upgrade to MCC2 will be ok)While MCC1 shipped with premade items, crimes, etc, MCC2 ships with none of the above. You can add your own items and crimes and the like from the Staff Panel.Thats all i have to say about MCcodes right now.What you need to install MCcodes game to work:You need a webhost + Mysql Database + PHPmyadmin + cron jobsonces you have the codes upload them to your webhost and go to the website.change the login.php to installer.php in the address bar. Then a page will come up with a form it asks for your Databases info and The Admin info fill that out. then after you filled it out with the right info about DBase and Admin. then press install. If install is successful a page will appear with some cron jobs you have to put in for the game to load its energy ,crime ext.) bars. go to your webhost and you will see a cron job icon click on it and insert the cron jobs and after that your game will be up and runnning.. but you will have to edit the codes as i dought you want the sytyle they give you.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~you can get that from me for a small price real price is $300 but if you want to make a 3D games and stuff learn how to use software like Blender and stuff.

Okay, now this is going to sound a little far-out, but I would reccomend C++. It is fairly simple to learn, and you can do more with it than with any game maker program. There are some good C++ tutorials at http://www.3dbuzz.com/ if you want to learn it. It takes dedication and time to learn it though. If you don't want to jump right to the big stuff though, I would reccomend gamemaker. It is a really simple program. If you do want to eventually move onto C++ and the like, then you should buy Gamemaker and learn the basics of GML. Then look at the first C++ VTMs from 3dbuzz. You'll notice that they're quite similar. GML is essentally C, which is the parent of C++. The main difference between C and C++ is that C doesn't have classes. GML DOES[ have classes, you just can't make your own. That's all I have to say.

I'm not sure what you mean by adding to your site, though for making offline games, that gamemaker someone mentioned looks good.

 

I would also recommend another one to try, perhaps similar, which is Games Factory 2. I have tutored at certain holiday courses where we used this with young students (intermediate to secondary school age) and for many of them, this was their favorite program. I was impressed at the speed with which students could make their own games, and it was fun to learn.

 

The program is shareware (try before you buy) although as far as I know there are only two restrictions until you purchase...

A nagware "type in your registration number" window at startup.

The non paid-for version cannot "compile" games, so you have to run them within the package itself.

There is a bug in the software I found commonly hits students in class: After a while, when you run the games, graphics sometimes go missing. The solution is simply to close the editor and reopen it. It has something to do with graphics failing once RAM gets low.

 

This is a very easy program to learn. It has a fantastic tutorial that takes you step by step through making a breakout style game. It will definitely get you started even at the non-paid for level.

 

Enough babble already! You can download Games Factory 2 from http://www.clickteam.com/

 

 

P.S. I should probably mention they also have a more advanced "Multimedia Fusion" package which may be capable of creating internet-ready ActiveX games. I don't know this for certain, having only used Games Factory 2.

Like the first poster said, the only games you can make without any experience are ones made by Gamemaker (he provided the link). They're pretty fun, and can get intricate for the type that they are. Also, I think there is *some* way you can put them on the net, but they aren't like other Flash/Java games - you have to download them to play. You still could put the links on your site though.Good luck.

Rpg maker! Brilliant series and you can save the games as flash files. (I think)

The FREE one is rpg maker 2003 but its 2d! The next two cost £60 but there are several ways to get them for free. The names are Rpg maker Xp (bbest one) and rpg maker VX!
