Yeah!!

I made a video game. It is my first attempt at playing with Game Maker 7.0, so I’m still learning. But witness! My first video game ever, [Eat The Popsicle](http://rapidshare.com/files/126925420/eat_the_popsicle.exe.html)!!

It’s an .exe, but I promise it won’t hurt. WASD controls. Enjoy – and play responsibly!

Very nice. Might want to spell “you” correctly in the finished product, though.
