Note that this is NOT a top 100 video. It's not about what the "best" Game Maker games are. I tried to choose good games, and take a lot of recommendation from folks who have played a lot of Game Maker games, so it will include a lot of good games, but it's not a "best" list, it's simply the games I like. It's also partially based on which games look good in video format and which games show off what the Game Maker is capable of.

To get the exact name of a game from the video, just take its time (in seconds) and divide by six, that will be its position on the list above. For instance, the third game goes between 0:12 and 0:18, each game is shown for exactly 6 seconds. I'll add in more precise time signatures, and links to each game, later.
Special thanks to: Tim W, Clysm, YoMamasMama, and the rest of the Eo community for recommending games for the list and for recommending music to use. The first music track is a NES-soundchip version of a song from Perfect Cherry Blossom, the second music track was composed by YoMamasMama, the third and fourth music tracks were composed by Long Dao for my unreleased game Saturated Dreamers.
