I am currently looking for a host for my game that I am creating, and its nothing big as I don't spend millions on teams and websites... 1 person.
I have a link to the thread at the community its progress is at.
http://forums.gamemaker.nl/index.php?showtopic=226725
Its a top-down space shooter, 3 levels and its still in beta form so if you download it expect bugs. Freeware. Thank you and please post here if you wish to comment.

wow....thos were some really good graphics! That is one of the best game maker games I've ever played! Do you have any other games....(I want more! Very Happy ) But seriously...that was cool can't wait until it's finished...
Mgamerz
Yes, I know of another game that is like that, but the programmer has way more experience.
Its a Real Time Strategy, but you need a good graphics card at very least 64. Its great, I love it, and its not even done yet.

I did not make this game.
mistuh griddlez
wow! that was awesome now i've got yours to wait for and that one! Very Happy
Mgamerz
Yes, and on the Game Maker Community(Accessible by clicking icon in top right on link-page), you can find hundreds of things to do. Talk about Game Maker Games in their thread, talk about Game Maker, Look at Game Maker Games and Works in Progress, Find hundreds of thousands of sound files ranging from OGG to MIDI, find graphics from 1x1 to 3200x3510...
Ya, So I have plenty to do. That game you tried, Battleships forever, was not made by me, but the creator thanks you for playing it.
He has quite a bit more experience in Game Maker than me.
I also have dated my game to finish around June-August.
There are 2 more titles in Queue:
StarBord 2:One of these(Nightmare, Magnetic Wars, Destruction in Time, Betrayed)
StarBord 3:Final Fronts(I hope)

Thanks for playing my game... Nobody at GMC seems to post on my topic...

I'm making a game in flash called teddy town. No need for a link though it'll big news once its out :) . My friend uses game maker though. Hes had some expeirence in top down and isometric. I personaly didn't ever understand game maker though. :?
Mgamerz
Well right now they are nearing the release of GM7, and Game Maker is merging with YoYo Games(I'm not liking it that much...), but you get lots of free services from inside Game Maker. That BattleShips forever game is updated nearly every week, now their is powerups, Raid and blockade mode, gun changes, and other new things. I just love it, but if you have 64MB memory card you should turn surfaces off from the options menu. Also download the music pack at least once for music.

Yes, My game is also coming along, I'm soon going to implement a death thing and also I am nearing completion of one of the stages in the new battle arena. You won't believe how many variables I need for zephyr's All range mode object... Its got things like this
Disabled
Invinsible
Disqualified
global.turnleft
global.turnright
... On second thought, I'll just post the code I used for Zephyr's Create event, which is executed only when obj_ARM_zephyr becomes an instance in a room.
Code:

global.turnleft=3
global.turnright=3
speed=3
gun_ready=true
current_gun=0
xxr=lengthdir_x(10,direction-45)
yyr=lengthdir_y(25,direction-45)
xxl=lengthdir_x(25,direction+45)
yyl=lengthdir_y(25,direction+45)
Pcolor=make_color_rgb(66,66,255)
//partical system start
Sname=part_system_create()
Pname = part_type_create()
part_type_alpha3(Pname,1,0.50,0)
part_type_shape(Pname,0)
part_type_size(Pname,1,1,0,0)
part_type_scale(Pname,1,1)
part_type_color1(Pname,Pcolor)
part_type_speed(Pname,1,2,0,0)
part_type_life(Pname,20,40)
part_system_depth(Sname,obj_ARM_zephyr.depth)
Ename = part_emitter_create(Sname)
//Pname is the Partical Type
//Ename is the Partical Emmiter under the Partical System
// PS means Partical System
//Sname is the System Name{Partical}
hp=1
alarm[11]=1
Bammo=0
view_object[0]=obj_ARM_zephyr
disqualified=false
disabled=false
invinsible=false

Well, if you think thats complex(For one instance) check this out: I could probably break this up into 4 instances and it would 10x shorter, but I like it better in one instance. Note, I am a somewhat experienced-advanced programmer with Game Maker, this is GML, or Game Maker Language. Its translated into C+/-/# or whatever before its executed by the comp... SO its a bit slower, but this code is in the draw event so its drawn on the screen every step:

Code:
draw_set_alpha(1)

if instance_number(obj_ARM_zephyr)>0 then
{
draw_sprite_stretched(spr_Ghealthbar,-1,view_xview[0]+10,view_yview[0]+460,obj_ARM_zephyr.hp,18)

}

did you find someone to host your game?

what kind of requirements are you looking for?

what would be in it for the hoster person since you are doing this freeware?
thealpha
oh, I will try to see and have a look
