Hi, is there anymore information on the project ? , for example , like how to run the game or a "Read Me" section.
Hi!
Thank you for your question.
This is a survival game project with a very straightforward structure and clean, easy-to-read source code. The controls and mechanics follow standard survival game conventions, so it should feel familiar to most developers and players.
How to run the game:
Controls:
The code is well organized and documented inside the project, so an additional “Read Me” file is not strictly necessary. However, if needed, I can provide a short usage guide upon request.
Let me know if you need any specific information
Thank you for the response, my download corrupted so I found my problem. the only issues I have now are a few compiler errors.
Glad you found the issue!
If you’re still getting compiler errors, you can also try deleting the game’s save files before running it again, just to make sure everything is clean. Sometimes old save data from a previous build or export can cause unexpected issues.
You can find GameMaker save files here:
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\[GameName]\
(You can quickly access it by pressing Win + R, typing %localappdata%, and pressing Enter.)
Then just delete the folder with the game’s name and run the game again.
