GameMaker Games - Indie Games Made with GameMaker

GameMaker is the 2D engine behind some of the most influential indie games ever made. Browse GameMaker games listed by their developers and see why so many 2D hits started here.

GameMaker is a 2D-focused game engine from YoYo Games, scripted in GML (GameMaker Language) or its visual equivalent. It is free for non-commercial use. Selling a game currently needs a paid license, but YoYo Games has announced that games built on its new GMRT runtime can be sold on desktop, mobile and web without one from 1 January 2027; consoles still need the Enterprise tier.

Why GameMaker keeps producing 2D hits

  • Built for 2D. Rooms, sprites, tilesets and sequences, with a fast write-run-tweak loop that suits action games where feel is everything.
  • Approachable code. GML is easy for beginners yet powers commercial releases; visual GML helps non-programmers start.
  • Export targets. Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and HTML5, with console exports available on higher license tiers.
  • Low system requirements. GameMaker games tend to run on almost anything, which widens the potential audience.

Licensing has changed several times. Today GameMaker is free for non-commercial use, with a one-time Professional license for commercial desktop, web and mobile releases and the Enterprise subscription for consoles. In October 2026 YoYo Games announced that from 1 January 2027 games built on its next-generation GMRT runtime can be sold on desktop, mobile and web without a paid license, while console releases still need Enterprise. Check YoYo Games' current terms before you publish.

What to check before playing a GameMaker game

Expect tight 2D gameplay and modest hardware needs. The things that vary between games are resolution and fullscreen options, controller support and accessibility settings such as remappable keys, so check the store page or ask in the developer's Discord.

Many GameMaker games are fast, difficult action titles. If you prefer slower games, sort this page by votes and read the short pitches, or explore the RPG Maker games page for story-driven 2D RPGs.

Listing your GameMaker game on Mutop100

  • Choose GameMaker as the engine so your game appears on this page.
  • Lead with the feel of the game in the trailer: the first five seconds should show movement and combat, not the logo.
  • If you have an HTML5 or GX.games build, link it through itch.io or your website so players can try it instantly.
  • Mention controller support and Steam Deck in tags if you have them; 2D action players care.

List your GameMaker game free.
