    To learn more about the creation of particular types of games a number of tutorials are available on this page. All tutorials have been rewritten for version 8 of Game Maker. They all contain a text document in pdf format, a number of example games, and often additional sprites and sounds.

    Inform is a design system for interactive fiction based on natural language. It is a radical reinvention of the way interactive fiction is designed, guided by contemporary work in semantics and by the practical experience of some of the world's best-known writers of IF.

    Long, long ago at a GDC far, far away, I introduced the idea that a useful way of looking at gameplay is as "a series of interesting decisions". This comment has since taken on a life and identity of its own and appears irregularly in theoretical discussions of game play and game design.

  • mix of drawing some parts of the animation (like the legs or arms) and pupetting some other parts (like the face).

      I'd expect it to be easier the other way round.
  • If you look at the following bouncing ball, you’ll notice that the ball squeezes when it hits the ground, and stretches when it moves up. In the GIF on the right, the squeeze and stretch of the ball is much more exaggerated. Which animation is more pleasing to you?

      You can achieve the same effect using plain old procedural "math-driven" animation.
  • if you are doing the same scene as frame by frame animation, it gets a bit easier.

      And what if the artist decides to change the path later?

  • This kind of precision is very difficult to achieve simply through scripting.

    This website is what I use for ANY sprite from a video game. I've been using it for a number years, it is very user-friendly and easy to use. Click the search bar and type in a video game. Any sprites at all relevant should show up. It is VERY useful for finding what you need. There are over 1000 spirte sheets, which is a LOT of sprites.

    There are a lot of awesome sprites to be used here; this site isn't just for Pokemon sprites! There are many sprites that can be applied to a non-Pokemon game as well.

    There are many sprite sites out there, and many of them have sprites others don't. So, to save you the trouble of googling multiple sites for a specific sprite, I'm posting a THIRD sprite site. I know of a couple more, too. This one is great because they copied the sprites from their favorite videogames. There are many users, all posting sprites!

    From YoYoGames Wiki Game Maker Scripts are used in Game Maker to execute code. A Game Maker script is basically a function, capable of taking arguments in, and returning a certain return value. The advantage of scripts over regular pieces of code is that they could be performed more than once, saving file size, memory, and also making the code simpler to read, understand, and edit.

    This is a great video that goes over the basics of game maker studio.
  • Sebastian Cueva-Caro on 07 May 14
     
    This video (and channel) deals with making a simple Platform game using the game maker language. You can see how the D&D actions of GM are translated into code, and how much you can manipulate them to do what you want, instead of being limited by the D&D's format. For someone with no previous experience with GM or coding, these videos can be very useful as an intro to what you can do with the software.

    This is a viable resource because it gives you 7 ways to improve every game. It is valuable because I wouldn't want to make a blueprint on paper. I always thought it should be digital.

    This site gives you, the creator, some ideas of what the player will most likely feel when they are playing your game. It also encourages you to be creative and try to think out of the box. In general, I think that this website is helpful in a lot of ways. Hope you find it useful too!
