Indie films-games and something anything else inbetween! At IndyFilm Oneblaze we try to highlight Indy creative projects.

Here again we are presented with another awesome humble bundle. But there is one game I am eye balling because
it was created in game maker. I have heard talk about gamer and that it’s not a solid engine. As a seasonal programer as I like to label myself from the productions that are coming out of that tool I don’t see it as being a bad tool package. Several games that I have noticed that were made that I am aware of is Savant and Hyper Light Drifter and those are some pretty nifty games. From a person who was able to make a really solid game in flash with little to almost no programming knowledge except for web html, java and some php and then action scripting I can say please spare me the mellow drama you everyday programmers. It’s not simply the tools but the person behind the tools. If you suck like I did but have the drive you can eventually make a decent product but if you are just a whiny you know what then your product will also suck. Either way this little post is simply to let you know if you have some drive but not the greatest skill check out game maker and also from speaking to these guys at GDC you can do some code work in this application so don’t play the game of ohhh it’s game maker it must suck, no its you who suck. Now get to work.

Just a few great games made in Game Maker studio Sweet MARY!!
Risk of Rain, Savant, Hyper Light Drifter and the list go on and on
check them out at the game maker website showcase.

Hands down this is one of today’s most premiere science programs that I would advise any parent to allow their child to watch. Watching this took my mind back to my childhood of amazement after reading scientific America magazines, back to the core beginning of my questioning everything. Having the love of science in all it’s wild tangents, I am so amazed by the length of wonders that we are shown and made aware of everyday, as we know only so little about our existence. Sometimes we try to prevent our mind from going into over load but this brought on the blue screen. I have to apologize to my faith driven brethren as I do believe in a higher power and such our evolution past must have been written as such. The other coin of the fear man has besides being distant relations to apes or monkeys is the fear that when we do die there is no afterlife everything is now. That is a concern of most if all living being like myself the fear of not existing, just a thought and something to think about as we go on this journey of life. Science and faith can co-exist as from my perspective I see science as a road map of life/creation and faith as guide for how sentient beings should live and co-exist with each other.
