GUI and hidden mechanics [Super Demon Survivors devlog #3]
Super Demon Survivors is an homage to time survival reverse bullet hells, set in a familiar world pitting multiple characters against hordes of demons and monsters in a multistage free for all.
Can you outlast wave after wave of increasingly difficult, minimalistic gameplay using an array different weapons and power ups?
Where you like the genre or you want to be part of the active community, you will have direct influence on how the game will be done via comments below or directly with me and my community on my discord server.
The game is made by me and Gutpunch studios to create a game that is in the spirit of the good old games but with modern standards.

// content of this video:
In this video I take you on a journey through the eyes of the developer and the player. A passive understanding how to interact with a game is through the user interface (UI) or rather the graphical user interface (GUI). This interface allows the player to do predefined interactions to control aspects of the game and also gives the player feedback how the game works, like basic rules and an understanding how the core loop works. The GUI is not just for the player, it can be used also for control metrics/rules that are hidden for the player to control the flow of the game and to optimise it by the developer. These things may appear on the outside natural and understood passivly but are fundamental for a successful game to be done correctly.
I am not sure if I sufficiently explained this concept with the anecdote. So what I was refering to is that a child uses/learns from a haptical device like a screen to swipe/pinch/enlarge with their fingers to control content on the screen. And that small one from the story tried this by swiping on a glas tank for fish to enlarge the image, which to the child's suprise didn't work. All that is learned behavior but feels to us now natural (which it isn't).

UPDAT
update-v2023.2-bling-bling-is-back-with
The newest patch V2023.2 comes with some good new features. The biggest and best feature is the new particle editor with the new asset particleSystem class.
To start with the best thing first, we now have from this point on an asset class that allows it to be edited in an editor in real time, which is a god send. Particles are the magic pixels that fly in the background and enhance the game feel by a big stretch and now we can edit and test those without starting the game each time. It also allows them to be neatly packaged and share by the community, win win! There are a few minor features like that you can set "flags" in you music files and loop from these points onwards. Additionally they got rid of the being signed in to GameMaker when starting GameMaker, which is really convenient for beginners or people who want to try the software without user logins. And last but not least you can change how much of a "fidelity" your surfaces via their color channels are being assigned to, which reduces their overall gobbling on your VRam.
Tldr:
- particles editor with new asset class
- can loop sound more easy
- no forced logins

Creating ambience and small things that increase the visual feeling of any game. For that we use simple things like shadows, flickering lights and a vignette.
- draw shadows below characters/props
- draw a glow sprite to blend around character/glowing things
- draw a vignette to increase focus on the center
- draw a slow pulsating big orb/glow sprite in the center
Video for vignette:

2d-water-effect-gamemaker-studio-2-vfx
This vfx video tutorial shows you how to create in a few seconds a water effect in Gamemaker Studio.
The idea is simple: You create a transparent blue sprite, put that on an asset layer and apply a preset visual effect with the help of the inspector to a fx. This vfx is the underwater distortion. That's it!

DIABL
diablo-style-point-and-move-with-auto
This basics video tutorial shows you how to make a point and click movement in GameMaker Studio the easy way and this time short plus a neat way how to let gamemaker handle collisions automatically.
You may have seen/played games like Diablo or Path of Exile, a moba or real time strategy. All these use the same movement system: Point and click/move.
Here you only need to setup your target destination coordinates and use the mp_potentail_step function do the rest for you. It even handles collisions for you which is very handy if you don't want to setup a more complex system.

LOST
lost-ruins-waifus-+-dark-souls
Lost Ruins is 2d side scrolling survival action game, where you play as a young girl with amnesia where she wakes up to hostile foreign world.
Tldr: Lost Ruins is a classical 2D metroidvania video game with some japanese flavour mixed in the bunch. Developed by Altari Games with the Publisher Dangen Entertainment Japan. The game was released in 13th May.
Would I recommend the game?
Yes, but expect a standard well made video game with some cool looking art. Melee combat was in my access version too clunky/punishing because of slow rolling and slow overall attack speed.
What you will like
- graphics, visual effects look good
- items that gives passives to customize playstyle
- boss fights look reallly good, they are quite unique
- multiple endings ( I played and beat the final boss and enjoyed it)
Bad:
- can't be played skill based (dodge roll and fast melee)
- rolling is ultra slow, no idea who said this would be a good idea but rolling will most get you killed in this game
- melee is functional but terrible, your attack speed is sloooow (animation locked!) and enemies are fast. This should be the other way around
- broken magic combat, once you can use the homing and hp leech spells you are bascially in god mode
- boss fights are joke with magic but very unfair when melee fighting
Steam page to Lost Ruins:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1306630/Lost_Ruins/
Dangen Entertainment has some very good indie titles under it's belt
I already covered Momodora and Batbarian, noteworthy to check out are also Iconoclasts (execellent game) or Timesspinner (very good also) or Cross Code (if you like Secret of Mana meets hard puzzels this is for you!)
https://dangenentertainment.com
Disclaimer: I requested the key for this game, which I got. I didn't get any money, sponsorship nor do I have any affiliation with the developer/publisher.
