Ok, so i made a game in .gmk format. I want to get it to .exe format so i can upload it to yoyogames. but i dont know how to exactly. I've tried simply saving it as a .exe (using default .exe settings or whatever) and putting it in a .zip folder. When i upload it to yoyogames it doesnt work. Is there a certain way to turn a .gmk into a .exe or do you have to do something more to get it to upload bacause thats my goal here

This is easy, there is a button at the top that says, save as executable, in the word executable there is exe, EXE! theres ur answer!

Hm. Unfortunately, Game Maker isn't my area, but some of the other people around here should be able to help.

The normal way of creating an .exe is to use the "Create Executable" option in the File Menu. This will package your game into an .exe. I assume you attempted to "Save as…" If not, let me know and I'll look into it further.

And, I'm not a member of YoYo games so can't help you with the actual uploading, sorry. —hartnell
