Ok, I downloaded the fre version of gamemaker 8 today hoping to start making a game that looks kinda like pokemon but plays like diablo/final fantasy, problem is i cant figure much out about the program and how to make things do what i want... can anyone help me out here? Also could anyone point me in the direction on how to make sprites?
@metawaddledee: It doesnt really have any help regarding making sprites that change as they move (like actually move instead of slide around) or making stairs, or a bunch of stuff... in fact it doesnt provide much help at all except a link to some 3rd party tutorials but again they have nothing to do with what im going for. thnx goose, ill check it out.
If you could post a screenshot of the tool bar I'm sure I can help you a lot with Game Maker. I spent around five months messing with Game Maker 7.
