(இ﹏இ`。) thank you internet stranger (இ﹏இ`。)


In game maker specifically you may use following:

		
			direction = point_direction(x, y, x+x_speed, y+y_speed) speed = point_distance(x, y, x+x_speed, y+y_speed)
		
	

(compare current and future x/y coordinates and return values)

Reverse the process to get x/y_speed:

		
			x_speed = lengthdir_x(speed, direction) y_speed = lengthdir_y(speed, direction) Note: Added this post because its still viewed in relation to Game Maker: Studio and its specific functions. Maybe it has no value for the person who asked originally but i hope it will help some Game Maker users who wander here

Need to find time to do this!

Don't have any gameDev to show yet so here's some of my recent Pokemon Card pulls!

Somewhat delayed thanks to @MomentaryUnicorn for becoming a Ko-fi supporter.

You are amazing, thank you so much for the support. It really helps me out a lot!

Please everyone, go check out her cute pixel art!!

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Buy why, it's the same code the player uses!!?!

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

(Urm, I just found this in my drafts, so I'm not sure if I posted it? Meh, it'll do for now! Progress post coming later once I'm sure GameJolt is stable! )

Woop! The Goblins now have Swords!

Charged Sticker Supporter Shrine for June!

LOOL Look at how slow these gifs are!

This tablet really is rubbish

Thank you all for the support, it really helps me out a lot! And a special thanks to @MomentaryUnicorn for the kofi!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

June Game Dev Progress (2025)

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing well! Kind of a super short one this month as I lost a couple weeks to moving out and didn't have a computer.
