Can the code of a Game Maker game be converted to another programming language ?
Imagine that you make a game with Game Maker, then they ask you to remake it using another programming language ,C for example, will you need to start AFRESH ?
By the way, what languages are used to make GBA and PS2 games ?

Re: Can the code of a Game Maker game be converted to another programming language ?
Here comes some explaining:
GML is not C, or any other language. It is VERY uncommon for languages to be able to be changed without any work. Otherwise, they wouldn't be called different names.
So, yes, you will have to start AFRESH...
Im not sure about GBA, i've never used any type of GB myself... As for PS games, you need special hardware that SONY only sells to massive companies. Which can convert it into PS format, so sorry you can't easily do that. (GM won't work at all because it uses DirectX)

You might be able to decompile the .exe into another language since the .exe's all have the same format... but you'll probably get some REALLY weird code.

Especially since Game maker exe's have an encryption algorithm to try and stop this (Or so i've heard)

Isn't there a tool that converts GML to C++?
Re: Can the code of a Game Maker game be converted to another programming language ?
There's a program that spits out C++ source code, and the GUI is kinda' like GameMaker, but it's in its beta right now, and doesn't have too many useful functions.
