to get this properly running ull also need the steamruntime sdk which currently does not have an aur package (from the official gamemaker on ubuntu guide), run the following commands and it should get u fully setup
$ sudo mkdir /opt/steam-runtime/
$ curl https://repo.steampowered.com/steamrt-images-scout/snapshots/latest-steam-client-general-availability/com.valvesoftware.SteamRuntime.Sdk-amd64,i386-scout-sysroot.tar.gz | sudo tar -xzf - -C /opt/steam-runtime/
$ cd /opt/steam-runtime
$ sudo cp bin/sh bin/dash bin/cat bin/ls usr/bin/ (sourced from https://www.reddit.com/r/gamemaker/comments/112iuep/linux_fixing_compile_errors_on_non_ubuntu_distros/)

Can we not make downloading and setup of the steam runtime a part of the PKGBUILD?

how to scale fonts up? it is too small on 1440p

when ur in the ide go to file -> preferences -> general settings

there should be a dpi setting in there, just toy around with it

@danielah05 can you make a package for the steam runtime and add it as a dependency?

its something id need to look into, havent made a package from scratch before

This is months out of date 2024.1100.0.674 is out

I don't personally have time to maintain this, but if @danielah05 is down they can just make a new package for it as this package's maintainer was last logged in on 2024-03-28

So far your best option is to just run GameMaker through Bottles using the Gaming configuration, which I've found actually works pretty well

this package doesnt seem to get update often anymore and its pretty behind on the latest game maker version, id be happy to maintain it instead if u dont wanna actively make sure it stays on the latest version ^^

to build linux games as a zip you are required to have unzip and zip, so it's probably a good idea to add those into optional dependencies

winnie_ua commented on 2024-01-29 20:56 (UTC)

This should be in dependecies https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy

otherwise it would fail to build
