gooey

gooey is a small UI library that lets you create menus, HUD and other UI elements in Gamemaker 2023+, with a few lines of code, using sprites.

Download the latest version directly, or visit the itch.io page for more info.

gooey has the following features:

• Drag and drop setup - Import the YYMPS and start building!
• Sprite-based - all widgets work with nine-sliced sprites directly within Gamemaker
• Intuitive code for setting up the UI - focus on the What, not on the How
• Struct based, with a set it and forget it manager object
• Setters/getters for properties
• Fluent interface (i.e. you can chain methods together)
• Kenney's amazing UI asset pack sprites are included for testing
• Text based on JujuAdams's superb Scribble renderer
• Free and open source (FOSS) (MIT license)

• Canvases (surfaces)
• Checkboxes
• Dropdowns
