General Update

Hello! Given it's been a little while since my last video came out I thought y'all were due a small update!I'll come back around to adding a bit more the inventory mini-series I've started but I don't want to over do my focus on it due to the increasingly specialised nature of th...

Secret Project is out!

Some of you might recall when I was frustratingly vague about a decision to take on *even more work* at a time I had largely promised to not take on more work.That project is finally out! I provided some programming help for certain specific areas and elements of DELTARUNE Chapter 2.It was a massive...

Inventory Mouse Control

Sorry this one took forever! A whole lot of moving rectangles around in after effects. Enjoy!Source code has been uploaded here: https://shaunjs.itch.io/shauns-inventory-tutorial

Inventory Mouse Control [Progress]

This one is taking me a little while! There's quick and dirty ways I've written this before but given how clean our base inventory was I wanted to write something good/generic to match it with the mouse control.I opted for a state machine controlled 'mouse' object that deals with all...

Sub only pricing for GameMaker

The final (final) ((final v2.1)) stretch

The script is done for ARPG ep51!Every week the end has felt so close and yet so far, every bit of work revealing yet a little bit more work that needed doing.

Weird topic to cover 44 episodes in but here we are! Mostly a bit of a cleanup episode and episode 45 is going to be similar. There's a few things we've glossed over or put off that are very minor changes and fixes and content that needs creating to get us to where the original Demo was.In t...

Patreon Credits Test - Feedback requested!

So I talked a little while ago about how I wanted to find a way to streamline producing the credits sequence on my videos. How the number of $20 supporters means that recording all of the names, while hand removing the ones that don't wish to be explicitly mentioned and having to re-do this proc...
