A few days ago, the member you know as skooldude lost his fight with cancer!
He made me promise to finish his game: Falcon Land. A 3D MMORPG.
It still has a few errors in it.

What should i do?
Should I release what he had so far made?
Should I just not work on it at all?

I'm not realy good with GM (i'm trying to learn GML) and he realy wanted me to complete the game.

What should I Do?

I'd say that if you've made a promise to him then you should keep that promise. Even if you're not good enough with GM to complete it you should not give up. You've made a promise to him and if you don't fulfil that promise he'll be disappointed in you. I recommend that you either hold on to the game and start working on it until you're good enough with GM to make that kind of game or ask others to help you make the game. Just don't ever think about to put down the project. You've made a promise so you must fulfil it. I can say no more other than good luck.

I have a dream. I have many dreams. And here I can fulfil one of them. But it's not easy.

were there 4 u pal, and now after my family saw the YouTube video that framed me, they don't trust me now, and they laughed and I don't know what to, do I thought families were always meant to be there for each other, but now I feel the only place I am safe is with my pals, at YoYo Games, and they treat me with respect here and more like a family then anyone could or my parents or family treat me, they spoil me sure, but then when I turn a blind eye they are talking about me behind my back... so you help with the task and do something but I guess, we both need help here, what do I do, people?

Skooldude died?
He was really cool. We had some good times (like when we spammed about fish fingers)

I thought he just left Yoyo.

Continue the game, if you can. If not, put it aside for a while, but come back to it.

Good luck on the game, As the other yoyogames are saying don't give it up, You made a promise and you must stick to it, I felt sad when you said skooldude has lost the battle about cancer, He died at the 14 age and that's quite too soon for him to leave this planet.

If your just starting GML, you can start by converting from D&D.

Don't give up. If you need help, you can ask me or anyone else here. If I never asked for help, I never would've learned. I don't know much, but I'll help if I can.

there is a topic devoted to this..... (programming help)

http://forums.yoyogames.com/forums/3/topics/17323


all the programming help you want, generally run by me.

but do you have any multiplayer, rmpg, 3d, or plain game maker experience at all?

because if you don't , it is never getting finished.

to Power Board: Good luck to you. I hope you can finish it....it would be a very nice gesture. Try as hard as you can to fulfill it.
