Opera gaming browser5/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Opera, through YoYo, seems to have an “if you build it, they will come” philosophy, and “building it” requires the developers. Opera offers a gaming version called Opera GX, and the company recently bought a gaming engine, moving into that specialty even further. It seems like developers are getting love and attention, which isn’t always the case. There’s also a new competition which is aiming to function as a “Game Awards” for the GameMaker community, and there was a first-party hosted game jam.Īll of this, I dig. Ideas generally aren’t currency in game dev circles – execution is – so this was a good way to pay some developers and get an idea made that wouldn’t have otherwise. Normally this type of competition involves doing the work and giving up IP rights, but this seemed much better. Opera also recently ran a competition where anyone could submit a game idea, and the winners would have their idea made for them in GameMaker. Do the mostly-2D, mostly-indie-AF games that normally appear on a browser need optimised software? If developers were to really take advantage of this power, would GameMaker be the engine to make that in? ![]()
