The 3D Gamemaker
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 3D Gamemaker is a computer application developed by The Game Creators that allows users to write basic shooter/adventure games for Microsoft Windows. Programming skills are not required to develop Gamemaker games, but developers may optionally add custom functionality to their games using the DarkBASIC programming language.
The 3D Gamemaker does not encourage one-theme game making, but encourages mixing different themes to make a unique and interesting game.
Games developed with 3D Gamemaker require at least 400 MHz Pentium processor, 64 MB of RAM and DirectX 7.0b to run.
