[Year 12 SofDev] Alternative to GameMaker for Year-8 and Year-9

[hem.lony.l at edumail.vic.gov.au]

Hi Jayanti,

I've stuck with gamemaker 8.0 or 8.1 and shall not be budging from that (I believe I don't need to). I still have the installer since way back when. Fortunately as our school has a 1:1 program, students can install it into their laptops.

Regards,
Lony Hem

Hi,



For the past few years,  I have used GameMaker 8 with my Year-8 and Year-9 students. However, this year, I was told by our IT guys that GameMaker 8 is no longer available. So, we purchased one class-set of GameMaker Studio 2.0.  I am having a number of issues. Hence, I am looking for alternate for next year.



Is any one using GameMaker Studio 2.0?



If you are using any other software with your Year-8 and Year-9 classes, please let me know.



I have read a few email discussion but I could only find one about GameMaker dated 2017. Hence, apologize if it is a repeat.
