I use a program called 001, I'm not terribly good at it. Its not even a coding program, lol. But its a great tool for beginers. I'm working on a game where my dog makes a deal with the devil to bring a zombie uprising. :P Its pretty fun making it though. Adding in all sorts of 8 bit tunes, rickrolling people in the bathrooms, going to india to find the devil. Hopefully by the end of this (I hope to have it done by october) I'll be more adept and able to make my games a little deeper. Ill be sure to share it with you all when I do.

Anyone else like to make games?
 
I enjoy making games. I'm decently experienced with visual basic and programming code of that nature but have yet to apply it to any individual projects of my own. Right now, I'm making a game in a similar program to the one you described that you're using called Game Maker 8.0 (just a very beginner user-friendly type software). I'm trying to make the game so that the premise of it is where the player will take on the role as me. The situations that will be played through in the game will consist mainly with all people that i've met over the internet and have formed a relationship with. In creating this game, I'm of course being very imaginative with the situations and conflicts to deal with (e.g. A friend of mine Ryan spawns as a mutated Cacodemon from the DOOM series and a battle of epic proportions ensues). Haha, it's a work in progress and clearly very underdeveloped but I'm excited about creating it and have intentions to start learning C++ sometime this year.
 
Myself and a couple of internet friends years and years ago were at one point involved in creating our own mod using the original half-life engine based around fantasy/medieval/class orientated team battles; we had one experienced c++ coder (This guy did so much work with the coding) we had another guy who was quite good at Milkshape and Maya who did alot of the model rendering, another guy who worked on textures and myself and two other people who worked on level/map design.

I was using worldhammer to design the maps using alot of the half-life defualt textures aswell as some of our own implemented ones, i had so much fun creating these world's even though the project fell apart in the end..

As far as coding goes, i only have limited experience with visual basic (yeah i know, but i found understanding coding language to be easier with a visualization, i was able to teach myself what the corresponding codes effect would be in relation to the visual program below, when i actually tried c++ i simply couldn't comprehend it.. takes a bit of patience and time to learn it..)
 
I used to write little odd visual-based programs for fun, back in the day. They weren't really games themselves, so much as it was a game for ME to write them.

I wrote this one where you would draw on a blank screen, and as you were drawing lines, the computer would draw along with you, and incorporate your lines into this crazy repeating rainbow spiral fractal thingy. Too bad I don't still have the app.
