GAME MAKER

This course uses a program called Game Maker

  •           Game Maker is an “open source” software which is free & available for everyone to use
  •           Game Maker is for beginner programmers & includes great tutorials and wonderful forums and Help documentation.
  •           Game Maker let’s you do much of the programming just by clicking on icons (like using Windows).  NOT all game programs work like this.
  •           You will program using GML language – which is unique to Game Maker
  •           GML is an “object oriented” programming language which makes modifying a project easier
  •           Java, C++ and C# are other common object oriented computer programming languages (most of the internet, games and mobile apps are programmed using one of these three languages)
