◆ GameMaker ◆
Releasing August 16th
Hi there Gamers! We are happy that GameMaker has received such a warm welcome, and with new staff joining our team we very excited to announce that GameMaker will soon be leaving Open Beta and fully joining MunchyMC!
You might be wondering, what does that mean?
Let me explain…
First of all, we’ve almost squashed all of the bugs! Therefore you will not be finding as many as you may have found in the last few weeks.
We’ve also added a lot of new features which we’ll talk about throughout this post.
◆ Summer Competition ◆
GameMaker has a Summer creation competition in progress!
Want to win an exclusive tag and a free month of Maker+?

◆ New Lobby ◆
GameMaker has a brand new lobby, created by LinaStubborn!
Make sure you check out this new spawn and attempt to complete the parkour!
◆ Cake ◆
GameMaker now has cake! You can’t eat this cake though…
Cake can be gifted to a maps creator if you REALLY enjoy their map!
You may be wondering: Why do I want cake? Well, if you get enough cake you can exchange them for rewards! Listed below are the current rewards:
[Maker] Rank (14 Days) - 25 Cakes
[Maker] Rank (28 Days) - 50 Cakes
[Maker+] Rank (14 Days) - 50 Cakes
[Maker+] Rank (28 Days) - 100 Cakes
(Prices may change)
◆ Build Mode ◆
Build mode has had a TON of new features added!
In this post I’m going to go over the main new features that you’ll love!
Items & Inventory Layouts
Items & Inventory Layouts are two of the BEST new features! Using these you can create custom items with abilities and inventory layouts that you may apply to players, no more chests!
Teams
Teams! You no longer have to spend half an hour creating your own teams system for your map, you can now do it in three clicks (I counted it myself)!
Teams have a ton of options and settings you may change, and can also be checked inside a conditional action! You can do some awesome stuff with this.
Furniture
Sadly, GameMaker now has a custom resource pack for furniture. Oh wait? Nevermind, apparently it’s all totally vanilla!
Have you ever wanted to have a custom kitchen in Minecraft? Complete with a duckling on the stove? Well look no further!
GUIs
Personally, I’ve used GUIs so much already that I can safely say you’ll love them.
Want to make a simple to use kit selector? Easy to make using a GUI!
What about a settings menu? Probably even easier than a kit selector!
Entities
Entities! Minecraft has a total of 65 mobs, and in GameMaker you can choose up to 65 mobs!
You can use entities to create a ton of cool stuff, such as a mob survival game!
Entities have a TON of settings you can change, such as whether a pig has a saddle, or even a creepers explosion radius!
Heads
Tired of changing your skin each time you need a new head? Or having to search for a player head online all the time? Well now you can find player heads directly from a menu in GameMaker!
GameMaker now has over 75,000 heads for you to choose from and place in your map!
And yes, we have allowed you to search…
We hope you guys love these new features just as much as we do, and remind yourself that this is just the beginning!
We can’t wait to see you all on the 16th for release day!
