Game Maker News (GMNews) is a news blog maintained by Scorptek with the intention of providing the latest headline news pertaining to indie game developers.
Specifically, GMNews focuses primarily on news related to the development of the Game Maker software (by Mark Overmars), and the online communities of amateur game and program developers who use the said software. In recent months we have also welcomed the addition of YoYo Games to our news coverage, a company which is now overseeing the development of Game Maker and ensuring growth of the indie game development market.
GMNews is not just a news site, it is also a discussion forum. We believe it is important for users to participate in discussions about various issues surrounding the game developer world and we encourage our readers to both comment on articles and submit news pieces that may interest other game developers. To submit a news piece, just send it to postMyGMNews@Scorptek.net and we’ll have a look at it within a 24 hour period. Note that our commenting system is open to all users, and registration is not necessary.
We like to keep a friendly atmosphere here, so please remember to observe the rules when posting comments on an article, and be respectful to other users and their opinions. We would also like to remind our readers that by participating in GMNews discussions and commenting on articles, you agree to the general Scorptek privacy policy.
If you have any further comments, questions, concerns or simply wish to contact the GMNews team, send an e-mail to GMNews@Scorptek.net.
Thanks for your interest,
