About the Book

This is the ultimate, frustration-free guide to realizing your game development dreams using GameMaker Studio 2 (GMS2). We cut through the confusion, offering a clear, project-based path from installation to publication. You'll master the GML (GameMaker Language), understand core concepts like objects, rooms, and events, and build complete, functional games. This book focuses on the why behind the code, equipping you with the fundamental programming logic needed to create any 2D game you can imagine. Why you need this bookSkip the endless YouTube tutorials and confusing documentation! You need this book because it provides a single, cohesive, up-to-date roadmap, guaranteeing you'll stop feeling overwhelmed by GMS2's interface. We ensure you learn the right habits from the start, avoiding the common pitfalls that cause most beginners to quit. By the time you finish, you won't just have copied code; you'll have the confidence to design, code, and debug your own original games-saving you months of trial-and-error. About the ReaderThis guide is perfect for absolute beginners with zero prior coding experience who have always wanted to make games. It's also ideal for aspiring developers familiar with other engines (like Unity or Godot) who want to quickly leverage GMS2's powerful, accessible 2D capabilities. If you're ready to transform your creative ideas into playable projects without getting tangled in complex syntax, this book is your essential starting blueprint. About the FinancesGame development doesn't have to be expensive. This guide focuses on teaching you efficient resource management within the engine, ensuring you get the most value out of the free trial version and the basic paid license. By mastering core concepts early, you avoid paying for expensive, unnecessary assets on marketplaces and gain the skills to code complex features yourself, effectively maximizing your return on your GMS2 investment.
