Welcome to the GameMaker wiki!
This wiki holds essential information about which tools/SDK versions each GameMaker release requires you to have installed, plus the setup guides for all non-console targets (for consoles, see further down this page). GameMaker's release notes link you here so that you can confirm you're using the correct tools and values for that version of GameMaker before you get started using it.
This wiki also contains comprehensive information on how and when to send us a bug report if you do find that something is wrong (and clarifies when we don't need you to report something).
Find the link for your chosen GameMaker release in the sidebar and use the information documented on that page to help you set up.
On each page you will find the links to all setup guides with the correct information for that GameMaker version, so you can ensure your GameMaker installation will always work properly.
Note
For all GameMaker releases before 2024.13 you will need to use the old versions of these guides on the Helpdesk site.
Yes, the setup guides are listed in the sidebar also; however, rather than using the sidebar to access them, always use the links found on the Required SDKs page for your chosen GameMaker version. (If you access the guides directly, then this will always be the latest content and so may give you information that is not suitable for an older GameMaker release.)
Consoles are not documented on this public wiki, due to confidentiality, but you can find each console's own private wiki using the links below (which will only work for you if you have already been approved for that specific console).
To unlock access to a console (and Microsoft/Nintendo/Sony can prove you're a licensed developer on that console!), please follow our Helpdesk article on the application process for console access.
Questions about the bug-reporting system? Start with the Overview page and it will explain the process, how to search for existing reports, and why we ask you to provide all the helpful information we asked you for.
Need to send us a bug report? See the instructions for reporting bugs inside GameMaker. This comprehensive guide will walk you through exactly how to send us a high-quality report that we can investigate right away.
