OffTopic - Game Maker post.

One of my favorite themes to use as a learning game is my Weapons of War game. After having done a couple of articles for the DevMag on Game Maker I decided I better do something in it So I sat down and wrote Weapons of War once again in game maker.

The executable can be found here: http://www.gamedev.za.net/filecloset...aponsOfWar.zip

The source version can be found here: http://www.gamedev.za.net/filecloset...nsOfWarGM6.zip

I have done this game in as close to the same way as I would have done it in Delphi. in other words I havn't used the standard actions that Game Maker has but instead have done everything in GML instead. This raised some interesting challenges as in many cases I would have prefered extending the functionality of an object rather than developing external scripts. But using the external scripts has worked quite well using some global arrays.

It took me less than 10 hours to complete. Luckily I had most of the Images from my Delphi version of Weapons of War.
