GML Tutorial – Converting the Gamemaker 1945 Demo to Use Code

February 1, 2007

I wrote this tutorial for those interested in learning game programming who are already familiar with the graphical user interface offered by Gamemaker.

The tutorial takes you through re-implementing the standard 1945 Gamemaker demo using GML, the Game Maker scripting language, instead of the graphical action editor. Some thought is required!

N.B. The tutorial notes are not fully completed but do comprise 6 whole pages of juicy goodness. The source file has the complete game implemented in GML for reference.
