Game Maker 1.1



Game Maker 1.1 was released on the 15th of November 1999. This version of Game Maker is the first public version of Game Maker; version 1.0 has never been released. As a matter of fact, there was no Game Maker 1.0, as the project was initially called Animo, meant for creation of 2 dimensional animations.

Game Maker 1.1 did already have a built-in programming language but was lacking sophistication. It did not use DirectX and it did not have a separate runner nor could it create executables. So games were simply played in the main window of the program.
