Great course! Wanted a gamemaker refresher since I've been away for a while and this course was perfect for it. Wouldn't mind some more advanced content though.

Explains in depth

excellent stuff

By Elisei Bobocea on 10/6/2020

Basically a tutorial on how to make a game, just copy what they do but even that is a challenge as they move way to fast. At the end you will only have two games and some idea of how game maker works, but no programming concepts understanding or independent ability to recreate something yourself.

amazing so far the instructor explain really well everything. Very recommended

By Adam Arbour on 9/11/2020

I found that this course kept things exciting and the projects were polished. I wish that there was more explanation to some of the functions used. For example, when outlining the collision code, built-in functions are used and the instructor tells you what the outcome of the function is but not what the function is actually doing. Having a bit more detail around what the function is doing instead of just what it is returning would improve this more.

good :D

By Omar Merino on 8/25/2020

Really good. Nice and slow. Explains quite well and easy to understand.

By Denis on 8/23/2020

I can't import the sprites. 5 month left and people still can't. To many pauses and mistakes. x1.5 It is a right speed playing all videos.

Yeah absolutely

Would have been 5 stars but Aaron goes WAAAAAYYY too fast sometimes. I'm pretty quick at typing and following along, but he blazes though some stuff at lightning speeds.
