Game Maker's Toolkit turns 5 (Patreon)
Content
Hello!
Wow, I can't quite believe it. Today marks the 5th anniversary of Game Maker's Toolkit.
On November 6th, 2014, I released my first (proper) video to YouTube: a video essay about adaptive soundtracks. If it did well, I remember thinking, I might be able to make a few more of these things.
It's now half a decade later and I've made about 124 of these things, ran three Game Jams, spoken all over the world, created several sub-series, interviewed various developers, and turned GMTK into my full time job. I guess it did well, then.
To celebrate the event, I'm going to be releasing the above video later today. It marks some of my achievements, noteworthy events, and some nice comments I've received from people in the industry.
I've also created a Teespring store, to finally sell some GMTK merch! People have been asking for this stuff for ages, so I thought I might as well give in! Here's what you can get:
The 5th anniversary one was made by a talented designer at Teespring, who worked with me to make this shirt. Hooray!
Patrons can use the code GMTKPATRON to get 10% off your order.
Later this week I hope to release a Patreon post about stats and numbers and learnings from the last five years, and plans for 2020. So keep an eye out for that!
Mark
