I need some money to buy an activation key for game maker and possibly some video games to help get my creative juices flowing. I will do a commission for anyone who donates that wants one. I will only do OCs though. Money goes through paypal, post here and message me to get my info and give me info on your OC. Thank you all
Honestly, I would learn an actual programming langage as opposed to Game Maker. At first, Game Maker seems easier, what with drag and drop and all. In the end, it just becomes a hastle with writing code (since 99% of all the good games use exclusively code snippets) for an engine that tries to do much more than an engine should. I used both Game Maker and have made games in Java, and honestly, would suggest the latter. As for commissions, I don't think I have anything that needs drawing quite yet, but no worries.
combination of C++ and Python could be helpful. I know one friend that makes games using that combination, and they are easy to learn (assuming you already know C )
I've heard that Java is a pretty easy language to learn. For a good number of people, I hear (though they may just be reeaally smart), it took them about half an hour.
>took the half an hour 90% of learning a language is learning it's logic (OOP or PP) If you know C++ (OOP C), then you pretty much know java. All you need to learn is how to import, compile, etc. If you have NO prior contact with programming, then I would estimate about a few months to get any good at java. >Python I lol'd
