OVERBYTE — After a year of not releasing any issues, the monthly magazine OverByte (organized by Greyson Wright) has returned with their 4th issue. This issue has a nice layout other than the fact the spacing crams way too much information in a page and almost makes it hard to read. This magazine has a negative vibe, so if you like kitties and unicorns, you may be turned away from it. Download here.
INCLUDED INSIDE OVERBYTE ISSUE 4:
Articles
"Tips to Keep You Motivated" by RC
"Does the Community Support GM" by RC
"A Look Into the nD" by RC
"2D Game Marketing Survey Results" by RC
"The Making of Hero Core" by Daniel Remar
Interviews
"Connor Ullmann" by RC
Reviews
"Tectoccular" by RC
"Narrow" by RC

GAMEMAKER'S DIGEST — Issue 10 of Brian Fetcher's GameMaker's Digest was released yesterday, Saturday, July 9th. This issue features an interview with SuperJoeBob (Landon Podbielski), a quick talk with some of the staff at YoYo Games about the new website changes, and a new section called the "Weekly Survey". This week's survey is "Do you like the new YoYo Games site?", and the survey link can be found in the magazine. This issue was an improvement over the previous issue. It included more content, removed blank pages and advertisements, and was much more fun to read. GMDigest is headed in the right direction, and I can't wait to read next week's issue!

This issue didn't contain as much content as was hoped. A combination of YoYo Games and real life issues got in the way. A lot of work was still put into the magazine.
Contains: Sponsor links, GameMaker ad, an article, an interview and in-GM tutorials.

Did I mention that the magazine is now purple? I guess they decided the green was getting old. In my opinion, I liked the magazine in both green and purple. So it looks great to me! The magazine looks like it had some effort put into it, which is very good. I'm also pleased to see the GMAG team grow. This magazine has a great future ahead of it!
