Oh. My. God. I naively thought, ‘let’s do another tech demo showing free play mode and just how much game play you can get from Gene’.
Chose a level and whilst playing through it, I find my vertical moving platforms were missing. This is a game breaker. Without those platforms you cannot reach the rest of the platforms and play through the game. Suddenly I felt sick to my stomach to think my game is broken with less than a week to release.
An hour later and I have found the problem. It was a Game Maker update. I had to turn off short circuit evaluations – pleeeease be careful if you are using this function. Turned it off and all returned to normal. Thank God.Back on course for release on 31st January. Pending any further disasters.
