OK,yes and no,this isn't a real operating system and it is still in version 0.1 and as you can see some things are done,others aren't and others are impossible.
NO i'm not enough mad to try to make a real OS in a game maker tool.
Test it and say what do you think.

download:http://www.filedropper.com/geminiosv01

What version 0.1 have:
Desktop(works,some limitations,can open some windows)
Start Screen(works,not bad,stupid metro style)
Store(works,some limitations,no games for now)
GEImage Viewer(works,many limitations,some images)
GEMusic Player(works,many limitations,some free songs)
GEVideo Player(works,many limitations,bad quality,3 videos)
100% compatible with touchscreen

It is version 0.1 this means that maybe there will be new versions but I will continue to work on this only if someone else is interested to show what this game maker tool can do.(I don't think that someone that use Game Maker tried to do something like this)
There are 3 ways you can help:

1)the most complicated
Work on the GE Mini OS core,things are difficult to understand,if you are interested in doing this you should familiarize yourself with how things works as fast as possible

2)a bit difficult
make more applications like:
a text editor
a image editor(difficult but if you are interested in this you should start with RGBPaint by DST)
etc...

3)the easiest
port you game to this new platform
you can do this by your own or attach a dat file with your game(if your game have more than a dat file please name them "NAME","NAME01","NAME02"),a 48x48 icon and some other images smaller than 300x300 to put in the store and I will do it for you
ALL the game MUST be completed,no demos

p.s. if you are working on this please say on the forum,only 1 person can work on this at the same time or some versions won't have some improvements

thanks and sorry for my bad english,
Goettsch

I'd like to try it, but the files are HUGE. How come can they be that big if you only have one GE project there? O.o

music player.dat and the .wav files are the biggest files,more than 200mb,the source with all the graphics is included
