Untitled Game Maker Raycaster

Description

Experience the retro charm of *Untitled Game Maker Raycaster*, a first-person shooter built entirely in Game Maker using only 2D logic and Draw commands. Created in 2016 as a personal challenge inspired by classic Doom, this tech demo features prerendered graphics, demonic enemies, and a heavy metal MIDI banda sonora that channels the spirit of '90s shooters. Originally meant to be a minigame within a larger project, it instead stands alone with a random level generator and improved rendering that doubles wall resolution through optimized object-based depth handling. Navigate with WASD, aim with the mouse, switch weapons with number keys, and use Enter to skip levels. While you can't actually die—health goes into negatives—and the exit is invisible, the game embraces its quirks, including visible blue dots representing enemies and occasional corner-stuck glitches. It's a nostalgic, clever showcase of what's possible in a 2D engine.
