Hi guys its me again! @DutchMTC is too busy for you guys so you get rat again!

GameMaker had a bunch of updates this month, so let’s get into this!!!

I. Featured Maps

We want to put some awesome MapMakers in the spotlight this month to recognize their hard work, highlight their creative maps, and encourage others to get inspired by their ideas.

This month’s featured maps are…

ANIMATING by Murmurbug_ and PAINT BATTLE by BadBoyHalo!

Animating is a pretty new map, but is one of the coolest maps I have seen! If you’ve ever wanted to try out animating in Minecraft, check it out!

While this may seem a bit biased as BadBoyHalo is the owner, for the past couple of days I have seen some awesome art created on Paint Battle! Here’s some art I have found:


By MinecratMelon48

By MinecratMelon48 (Center art)

By CamHitCraft

By Murmurbug_

II. Updates?!

This month we got four new updates on GM, and the fancy /changelog command!

These updates came with over 12 new features, over 24 bugs fixed and a bunch of much needed adjustments! I can’t say much, but there’s a bunch more awesome stuff in the works too :sunglasses:

Check out the new features using /changelog, you’ll be able to make some awesome stuff now!

III. Maker+ Giveaway

Another Maker+ giveaway?! Last month we had our first giveaway, which was won by Zombiemomto4! We’d like to show our appreciation for you all again by offering another 2 weeks of Maker+! To enter, all you have to do is to vote in the poll below!

:face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth: NEW Fableds and Ultra-Legendaries :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:
You heard me right: five new awaited Fableds have been released in October! :jack_o_lantern: We’re talking here about the upgraded versions of the Ugly Duckling Rod, the Elsa Snow, the Superman Cape, the Poseidon Trident and the Darth Vader Pickaxe. :muscle: Additionnally, a few Utra-Legendaries have also made an appearance! :eyes: The latest ones are the improved versions of the Dobby Ears and Fingers, the Mr Freeze Charm, Hagrid’s Magnificient Bean, Eson’s Sonic Scythe and the Voldemort Fancy Fingers. :pinched_fingers:

:sparkles: More Buffs! :sparkles:
Obviously, we must address the most important buffs! Not only were two items buffed (in this case, the Ultra-Legendary Warp Drive and the Wampa Fur that now has an increased boost effect duration), but so were MEGA EVENT PASSES and EXTINCT RARE ODDS! :exploding_head:
