Author's Note:

Linked is a drawing tool that lets you work on solo projects and collaborations alike! Combining a simple and intuitive drawing system with the power of the Reflect Account System, Linked allows players from anywhere in the world to connect to each other and work on the same drawing, chat, and play games.

Using this program, it is possible to play all sorts of games! Hangman, tic-tac-toe, and pictionary are only a few possibilities! The chat system allows players to view the image that is being drawn while chatting, and vice versa; the player who is drawing can see the chat unfold as he or she works. Linked also provides the hosting player with the ability to limit the amount of new players who can enter, as well as who can draw and who cannot.

Linked began as an investigation into the power of Game Maker's surface capabilities, and wound up being much more. I truly hope some of you out there enjoy this game, and create some wonderful things with it, by yourself or with a group of friends.

Controls:

Controlling the game is easy and is mostly mouse driven, except in the event that you're chatting with others.


While drawing:

LEFT MOUSE - Click and hold while moving the mouse to draw. The faster your movement, the more narrow the lines drawn will be, best noticed in the medium sized pen

RIGHT MOUSE or LEFT & RIGHT ARROW KEYS - Click to cycle through the 3 different pen sizes

MOUSE WHEEL / UP & DOWN ARROW KEYS - Cycle forward or backward through the different ink colors

SPACE BAR - Clear the canvas

F5 - Save the canvas (in multiplayer the filename will be chosen for you, in single player you can choose what to name your work of art)

F6 (single player only) - Load previously saved work onto the canvas
