Stencil Buffer Shenanigans in GameMaker

Описание: Stencil buffer features were added to GameMaker starting in the 2024.6 betas! There are a handful of interesting things you can do with this.

Note that you could previously achieve effects like this through other means, but they were a bit more work.
