> Work in Progress Rules

This forum is for people to post information regarding their WIP projects for discussion and feedback. Note: by WIP projects, we mean those that are well underway, and we require that you post a demo. Make sure that you READ these rules prior to posting. Also, the General GMC Rules apply here too.

The Work in Progress forum is for posting games or demos that are still under development. Finished games belong in the Creations Forum.

#1 Rule: All topics MUST contain a playable demo. Splash screens and empty rooms are NOT considered playable.

Please DO NOT post topics that are:
  • Videos, game ideas, or just screenshots. You MUST have a demo.
  • Team requests for asking for help.
  • Installers. A non-installer option MUST be provided.
  • Projects That Are Not Allowed
  • Do not bump your topic, except under the bumping rules.

Recommended Format
We recommend this format (or something similar). It's optional, but it may increase your chance of getting replies.
  • Game Name and Description:
    Summarize your game, and describe the game play and any special features. Be descriptive and accurate (don't exaggerate). Write clearly and use proper spelling. Avoid fancy formatting and lots of color -- it looks childish.
  • Screenshots: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND SCREENSHOTS (suggested image hosts)
    Keep posted images under 800x600 pixels, and under 100 kB file size per image.

    The information below should be provided as a courtesy to members:
  • Category: Arcade, puzzle, shooter, etc.
  • File Size:
  • GM Version: GM6, GM7, GM8 NOTE: If you use GM6, we strongly suggest you use Mark's converter program so your posted game is Vista compatible (as a courtesy to others).
  • Vista Compatible: yes / no
  • Screen Resolution: 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 etc.
  • Changes Screen Resolution: yes / no
  • Online and/or Multiplayer: yes / no
  • Download Link: suggested hosting sites
Note About Teams
Team members working on the same game must NOT bump each others posts. Back-to-back posts by team members will be removed.

Hosting Services
Check this topic for sites where you can upload your game and screenshots.
