[edit] Game Maker Community attack

Should the Game Maker Community attack be mentioned in this article? It regards the forum of the Game Maker community more than Overmars himself. Goofyman 21:00, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Full Name

Not sure if it would be of any use for this, but according to The Mathematics Genealogy Project, Mark's full name is Markus Hendrik Overmars, Mark Overmars is the nickname that he goes by more frequently. -IsmAvatar

[edit] Valid Information

The wiki article on Mark overmars is an important reference, Game Maker is a widely used bit of software and is even used by designers in the professional games industry to mock up ideas before programming them in their own engine. This tool has helped the game industry move forward and any information on the programs creator is to be considered highly valuable.

[edit] GameMaker merge with YoYo Games

This page should be modified to reflect that Mark Overmars joined up with YoYo Games in the development of GameMaker. The GameMaker website (referenced at the bottom) now redirects to www.yoyogames.com, so you may want to update that link. -IsmAvatar

This move is described in some detail in the Game Maker article. I don't see that it needs more text in Overmars' article as well, since that links to Game Maker. But I have changed the link itself as you suggest, especially since the redirect from the old site doesn't quite go to the right place. —David Eppstein 02:53, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
