What is Game Maker?

Game Maker is a program used to make 2D games for the PC. In my opinion it is by far the best easy to use game making program. Also, it's completely FREE! The program was made by Mark Overmars.

So what's this page for?

Here I will post things such as tutorials, examples and links all about Game Maker. I'm still learning myself, but anything I know that could be of use to others I'm more than happy to share. Also, games I complete in the future will be posted here.

These examples were made by other people and I in no way take credit for them. If any examples have bad links please report them to me and I'll fix it. Also, files are now zipped for quicker downloading. You will need a program such as WinZip to unzip them.
