Hotline Miami Remake in GameMaker #35 - Points popup
38This is the 35th video in a series on remaking Hotline Miami in GameMaker.
The video tutorial shows you how to make (faithful to the original) stylized point popups. There are mutliple things happing in very short succesion so, here it what happens in details. You have the two texts (ligher colored front and darker "shadow" back) that are rotating in an egg shape around a point that is moving slowly upward. These two texts are being color shifted (hue values is being decreased). And last there are 3 states, pop in where the text is getting enlarged, an idle state that waits until a specific minimum hue values is reached and a pop out state that reduces the text size to destroy the instance at last. That's it!
For the future: This series will will get a few more videos because it is still being watched and/or baught on itch.io which shows me that there is still interest in this series and I want to give a big thank you from my side!
Tldr: code in comment section or in my discord server as convenient local import
