Opera's specialist GameMaker 2D game engine has been in the public domain for around 25 years now, and some of the best indie games have made use of it. The GameMaker Awards 2024 showcases the best examples from the past year, highlighting what's possible in the engine.
Some 200 games were entered into this year's awards and 10,000 votes cast. Stepford's unique roguelike Picayune Dreams emerged with top honours as best game overall, clinching the vote in an impressive shortlist.
