Why โ€˜Silksongโ€™ Took Seven Years to Make The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that itโ€™s become an internet meme

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

In Italian, thereโ€™s a saying for when something is really amazing: you say itโ€™s โ€˜a bomb.โ€™ In this case, Iโ€™d say itโ€™s the perfect expression. ร–oo is a bomb. Thanks @namataka.bsky.social for developing it!

Some sprite stacking stuff Emlise had worked on before Rusted Moss!

In Rusted Moss, Fern was also animated with procedural animation but you can see with a side scroller in mind.

Save yourself a headache, make sure none of your assets go missing when using asset_get_index

I made a 3D action game with #GameMaker in one month! ๐ŸŸกเป’
It's been a crazy stunt, one that -albeit fun- I will never try again :P

You can try out a build of the game on GMI's website:

A making of is available on my patreon:

screenshot of a code editor, with a dialogue box showing "lvl 10 knight, 50/100 to level 11
 
 the code shown is:
/// @description String templates are cool

class = "Knight"
level = 10
xp = 50
xp_to_level = 100

// Old way, why are we doing math with words :(
var _old = "Lvl. " + string(level) + class + ", " + string(xp) + "/" + string(xp_to_level) + " to level " + string(level + 1) + "."
// New way with string templates. 
//If a string has a $, you can put variables, functions, math, etc inbetween {}
var _new = $"Lvl. {level} {class}, {xp}/{xp_to_level} to level {level + 1}."

show_message(_new)

String templates are super useful, and I'm realizing a lot of #gamemaker devs aren't using them!

If like me you find it annoying to build strings by adding stuff together and calling string() on numbers, try prefixing the string with $, which allows you to put code in between {}.

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:

Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

I think it's a common issue... This project was developed for a jam, so I expect to find some "spaghetti code," sadly xD.

But you're right: I try to clean up the project and leave it in better shape than I found it. ๐Ÿ’ช
