Sorry for being annoying, but my game Operius DX is finally out on Steam, Nintendo Switch, and itch.io! If you want to support my work, please consider buying it! It's only $5.
Yo! I'm Mors, a game designer and programmer from Turkey, and half of Distant Illusions. I love making polished, juicy games that feel just right.
I've been using GameMaker for over 15 years, pushing it beyond its limits. I also dabble with Unity, Unreal, and MonoGame from time to time, and use languages like C# and C/C++ often. If it can run a game, I can make it work!
It all started with Game Maker 5 when I was a kid, making (terrible) Mario fangames, and sharing them on internet forums. Over time, people actually started liking them! Some even went viral! That made me think, "Hey, maybe I can turn this into something more than just a hobby!"
Since then, I've somehow convinced Opera (the browser people who now own GameMaker) to pay me to make games for their Opera GX gaming browser. One of those games, Operius, even became the browser's official offline game!
That led to Operius DX, which I released on Steam and Nintendo eShop. No publishers, handling all the porting and the soul crushing bureaucracy myself.
