good experience! thank you suspendee studio for teaching me how to import and make sprites and sheet's
By HarryThompson Thompson on 1/12/2020
So far i am very much enjoying how you are quick and accurate making me have to double check previous videos and such to make sure i'm getting things right also love how you called out people who just follow along and don't try to figure out the reason why it works. The first section was very nice look forward to the second have of this. I am kinda sad that the world of knockback and tile collisions is not meant to be. But i think its great to see both options i have not yet experinced all of this and have just finished up the Bat lesson 38 and i'm getting allot of fun ideas through this thank you very much.

The videos are dis jointed, the code doesn't work and the teacher starts off by telling students to read the GMS manual, rather than helping them set up a new project. The teacher is also MIA in the question and answer section of the course.

It is currently very helpful with helping me learn the basics of GML, I can see most of what I learnt here being applied in future.

Switching between tile collisions and object collisions confused things a bit... I managed to complete the tutorial thanks! When it was mentioned that we were going back to tile collisions I stayed with it, so i had to go back and add the object collisions to complete.

Overall a very good introduction to making games with GameMaker Studio 2. Better than the previous course, and filled with small gems throughout, this was an enjoyable course and one I would recommend to those unfamiliar with GameMaker Studio 2.

The narrator seems uninterested in everything he is doing. It also seems like next to nothing will actually be "taught" in this course. I really want to like this, but it just isn't going well so far.

For some reason on iPad, the video courses are ending before they are over. I am losing the last few seconds of each video.
By Edward Cruz on 10/16/2017
Instructor keeps it very simple and straight to the point, I recommend it if you have prior knowledge in game engines or vocabulary to be able to keep up. This course is best if you are switching over from a different engine.
By Carlos Bevan on 8/14/2017
I am an absolute beginner and the it feels as if the instructor assumes the student knows the basiccs, for example, no step by step explanation was given on how to start a project from scratch, so I could not follow the instructor on my end.
