Does anybody here use Yoyo Game's Game Maker Studio? I've searched for the topic and didn't find anything.
I've started a project recently that, from the looks of it, is going to require me to get a VPS so I can run my own game server code in order to support online multiplayer. Right now I have it published as a facebook app. It's not the most exciting thing yet, since playing against yourself isn't exactly fun, but once I create an AI and online multiplayer I can see it being a great mobile game.
Right now I've been testing out th 39dll extension for multiplayer, since currently GM Studio's built in online multiplayer functionality is apparently pretty bad (but will be completely revamped in an upcoming update.) Getting a hold of a working version and being able to do a simple client/server test successfully took a lot of time... hopefully it will be smoother from here on out. But if anybody has any experience creating/hosting gaming servers, do you have a recommended VPS or methodology? Or any input really would be helpful, since I've never hosted a gaming server of any kind, let alone for my own app.
What I have right now, I created in a single weekend. It plays like SPOT for the NES: http:/
