Hello there! Welcome to my course.

& About me &

I’m Gurpreet Singh, a 2D indie game developer and instructor. I have years of experience in making games in GameMaker and I want to teach you all of that through this course.

& About the course &

This course is all about creating a 2D action-adventure game with GameMaker, from the ground up.

You’ll learn a lot of advanced coding using GameMaker Language. Here are a few examples of what we’ll go through:

? Data structures
? Auto-tiling and tile collisions
? Finite state machines
? NPC movement and textboxes
? Making houses and going inside them
? Saving your game and loading it
? A day-night cycle using blend modes
? And much more!

To check out what the game is like, make sure to watch the video above.

& More about the course &

This course is beginner-friendly, however it also contains advanced concepts. It is beginner-friendly in the sense that I explain everything I do so that no one feels lost. The advanced concepts allow you to do more in GameMaker. So, you can take this course regardless of your skill level!

The style by which I teach is to-the-point without any filler or unnecessary talking. I get things done quickly while explaining stuff comprehensively.

& Support &

Once you’re in the course, you can download the project so that you can import it into GameMaker Studio 2 and have a look at all the code.
You can also download all the sprites, scripts and sounds used in the game.

So join in, and I’ll meet you in the course!
