Building a Crafting Game, with GameMaker (Udemy.com)

Si, es bueno el curso, explica el paso a paso y los tutoriales van en escalada, tambien se denota que el profesor tiene preocupacion del material como indica correcciones sobre el material tambien uno tiene que ir entendiendo que se tiene que ir adaptando a los cambios de codigo como van siendo modificado a medida que se va actualizando el software utiliado y mas si se intenta programar en las ultimas versiones del programa //////////////////////////////// use google traductor Yes, the course is good. It explains everything step by step, and the tutorials progress gradually. It's also clear the instructor cares about the material, as they provide corrections. You also have to understand that you need to adapt to code changes as the software is updated, especially when trying to program in the latest versions.

This is one of the best lesson i've taken so far. I've learnt so much, not only for using gameMaker studio and GML but also some gamedev tips to implement gamedesign elements (placing objects, inventory manamgement, ennemy AI...). This may require some basic knoweldge of programming if you want to appreciate this course. If you know nothing about programming, maybe check a programming lesson first. Really good job Matharoo, thanks a lot for all the good work.

Goes over a bit of GMs UI and gives a few brief lectures on how the game will be coded. It gets very code & event heavy, but the instructor explains what each line of code does (which is great if you're a scrub with GMs syntax). It's nice, if you're wanting to get a ideas on how to go about coding a crafting sandbox game but if you're running a current GM client (May 2022) you might run into garbage code problems that you'll have to debug on your own time.

I really like how this course is set up and how everything is explained. The production value is very high. Mr. Matharoo takes the time to explain the code he uses, step by step with clear visuals and even some extra images and diagrams. This way I get to really understand what is going on in the code and makes it easier to build upon this game even further. There is a lot of information for a beginner as myself here, so I think I'll rewatch this sometime in the future, to even better understand what is going on. Sometimes I get lost in the scripts and parenting objects, so I can't find something back to rework it. But that's not mr. Matharoo's fault, his explanation is clear, it's just my brain that's not cooperating. :) The only thing that he forgot to explain at the beginning was setting the image speed in the sprite. In my version of GMS, it's standard setting is 30, which makes the player walk extremely fast. But if you pay attention you can easily solve this yourself.

Being completely new to GM, I find all this information very clear and useful. After finishing all the lectures I can say that it has a lot more information than I was hoping for. The course is very complete and I absolutely recommend it. The lectures and your own effort on practicing a lot, will give you what you need to make your own games. I feel confident to start another course for gamming IA and other for networking. Other students may need to reinforce other topics, but this is a fantastic start!

For me, this course shows me many different ways to programming and is really great if you already has any programming skills or worked before in a game engine. I don't really recommend if you have absolutely 0 knowledge about programming, even the teacher explains really very well, you will need some programming logic to fully understand what is happening. Despite being only 5 hours, the course covers many things in depth and if you really study along GameMaker documentation, asking teacher questions, is so much better than courses with 30~40 hours.

Basically a very above standart course! 4 stars are because I was frustrated with teacher pasting the code only. I wanted to write along him, not just pausing the video, copy the code and listen. I know, somehow the same thing but it was the only thing that was pissing me off. And sometimes the explanations were really fast, so I had to listen to stuff at least 4 times. But still, loved this course and probably will keep rewatching when I got stuck. Edit: Also, more tasks, tests, solo stuff for students would be nice

This course is #1 for the GameMaker category for a good reason. All the basics are covered very well. I like the teaching style of pasting the code all at once and then explaining line by line. This gives students the chance to copy down the code and then focus on what each line is doing. There are even a few updates tucked into the course to address the 2.3 update. My one hope is that there will soon be a new course discussing the use of structs in place of some of the older style techniques.

Excellent.
Learning by example is a good idea, and you make it fun!

Just amazing

Way better that the free tutorials I find on youtube. I'm finally understanding fundamentals of GMS2 I didn't even know existed!
