(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

Next up

New AoE spell sprites.

I think the Fire one needs something in the middle, and they all need particles. Kinda want the Ice one to look more like it's growing rather than just moving.

But these will do for now!

Thank you to everyone that gave me Charged Stickers last month!

You are all amazing and I can't express my gratitude enough!

Happy August everyone! Dang, the year is flying by T_T

Fewer new features this month, as I'm still getting accustomed to my new situation. Lots of bug fixes and tweaks though!

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.

Just make it exist first.

You can make it look nice later.

That's my philosophy too, but I often compartmentalise it and do it in stages.

Add a feature, get it working, then later make it look good!

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."

Wishlist the game: https://bit.ly/CritterCove

Magic rework is working! Added in the text info for movement types.

Just gotta fill in some sprite gaps, and a couple bits of data, rearrange and cleanup some look up/reference code.

Doing a rework of my Magic System to make it modular, so you can have any element as a Projectile/AoE/Orbit, instead of each being set as they were.

Also working on making it so Orbit spells have a charge effect to change the amount.

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

I don't have a cat, but I have a couple cat rugs!
