Wanna make games? Game Maker Studio Standard Edition is free now

[Responsible Allen Iverson]

To get it, follow these instructions: http://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/1resnx/gamemaker_studio_standard_is_free/

People think this is being done in response to Unity which recently got tools for making 2D games. Unity is also free and can be downloaded here: http://unity3d.com/unity/download

To see Game Maker's potential, here's a thread about a game that released this year that was made with Game Maker: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/new-metroidvania-game-valdis-story-abyssal-city.163053/

Haven't used GameMaker yet but it seems very powerful. I'm a fan of Unity and just downloaded the latest version. Going to try those new 2D tools

Unity is but Game Maker only works on Windows
