Unfortunately, Game Maker&#8217;s room editor is not up to what I need, so I have to make my own room editor. We&#8217;ll see if I can get that done in time&#8230; Regardless, whether I do or don&#8217;t make an entry, I want to think the LD community for letting me get more experience in Game Maker: Studio and game design in general. Best of luck to all of us!<\/p>","time":"December 7th, 2014 12:09 pm","title":""}
