Need some game artwork or quick sound effects? Want to get a nice looking prototype for designing your next big game? No matter your skill level or discipline you can benefit from our monthly bundle of assets, released every month and available to all GameMaker subscribers. Read: How to Add an Asset Bundle to your Library.

Head of GameMaker, Russell Kay: “We’ve been clear about our goal to make it easy for anyone to start making games. Asset bundles are just one more step in this direction towards making GameMaker powerful in the hands of creators of all levels. These bundles sit alongside our increase in new tutorials and upcoming template projects. We hope to see developers work towards releasing games on platforms like GXC.gg.”

Every month a new asset bundle will be released, across a range of genres and art-styles. Some will be more focused on particular asset types (i.e. a music track only bundle). The next bundle (releasing in January) is going to be filled with sci-fi space shooter assets and it’s already looking awesome.
