The First ever gamemaker tool jam! I think...

We all use tools. Some of us even make our own tools for our projects. Tools are useful.  Let's make some tools!


 

Often times when making games, you need to make a tool to help with a specific task.  Whether it's a level editor to allow you to easily build your game the way you need to, or allowing players to use their own art in your game, tools are everywhere.

So we're challenging you to make a tool in 4 days!  It can be any kind of tool, so long as it's considered an editor.  So particle editors, hitbox editors, or a slime editor!  (Because who doesn't love slimes)
