About TingThing, Developer of Platform Builder

[TingThing]

Hi everyone, my name is TingThing, the developer of Platform Builder. Thanks for checking out these forums!

I love making games! I've always enjoyed it! Even when I was young, the level editor was always my favorite part of a game because you could make your own stuff. When I got older, I wanted to learn how to make my own games, so I got into Game Maker. Today, I use Game Maker to develop Platform Builder, a toolkit which allows you to create your own Platformer games. So I'm like a Platformer Game Maker Maker with Game Maker, I guess. I'm on Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube. Here are all of the links:

In the world of Platform Builder, I go by TingThing. My real name is Matthew Tingblad. I have a personal website, MatthewTingblad.com, where I share about my relationship with God as a Christian. Our world is filled with spiritual confusion and uncertainty, so I try my best to supply loving and thoughtful information from my perspective as someone convinced in the resurrection of Jesus.

These are introduction forums. But if you're under 18, please don't post personal information about yourself like I just did with my name. In fact, it's best to never post information like this unless you really know what you're doing.


Feel free to write to me about anything! I'm happy to help however I can. Enjoy using Platform Builder!

Yours,
TingThing

The same about me.    I enjoyed games from the early childhood on and when others grew up from this then I am still interested one. Builders and editors inside the games was my favourite ones because making my own levels is always a chance to release my own world. But my logic was that all those games have been done by someone so also I should be able to make something by myself may-be.    One day I wanted to make my own 3D map for Doom and as well internet includes every kind of stuff often I thought that is it possible to make Doom maps. It could refer something to a Doom Builder so I just tried to type a words like "Doom Builder" to a search and there it really was. I was so excited and downloaded it immediatelly. It was different from what I imagined but it allowed to make something exactly that I dreamed about and so I was going to learn and I realized that it is not too difficult at all. 


But a lot of harder is to find a people who would fit with my personality and interests so I think I should keep myself here because it is lead by a smart but also by a very tolerant guy whom with it's pleasure to communicate with.    Too bad that a time is so pathetically short.

It's strange, xD, my first games to play in my childhood were MS-DOS games and some NES games, but when I was born, the games at that moment were NGC and probably DS, also that happens to me with music.

Also, my favourite part of games are the Level Editors xD.
In Duck Game I had created 80 levels, that is a little less than the actual total levels the game offers officially (92), and this past summer they added some oficial levels (11).
Also TrackMania is my favourite racing game, and...
Guess what! It has a level editor xD xD

I think that these kind of things really should be told more often...
