  3. User Interface rooms: the scenes (levels) in which the objects live backgrounds: the images used as background for the rooms objects: the things in the game instances: one particular occurrence of an object sprites: images that are used to show the objects sounds: these can be used in games, either as background music or as effects scripts: small pieces of code that can be used to extend the possibilities of your game Introduction

  4. Your First Game • Step 1: Set up the Game area • Start Game Maker and create a room where the action will happen: • Click the 'Add Room' icon • Choose a background colour • In settings, make the room caption 'Catch the Ball'

  5. Your First Game • Step 2: Add in the Sprites you need - a ball and a wall • Click the 'Add Sprite' icon • Name it sprBall • Click Load Sprite, and find the ball image. • We also need a wall sprite. • Find it in the Pacman folder. • Name it sprWall • Naming Sprites, Sounds & Objects • every sprite  sprXXXX • the sounds  sndXXXX • the objects  objXXXX.

  6. Your First Game • Step 3: Create the objects • create ball and wall objects • need an object to put in your game.  • A sprite just represents the object. • Click the Add Object icon • Name it objBall • Choose the Ball sprite to represent the object • don't make it solid. (It's best not to make moving objects solid.) • It interferes with the Game Maker collision detection system and your object may become 'stuck' • Add in a wall object.  • Name it objWall, choose the Wall sprite, and make it solid.

  7. Your First Game • Step 4: add them to the room • Put it in the room and add a wall • Open the room • Add in a ball (left click) • Delete (right click) • Add in walls (hold Shift and click) • Copy Multiple Object (Shift + Left click) • Move Object (Ctrl + Left Click)

  8. Your First Game • Step 5: Set up the Events for when your game is played • Events are the things that happen in your game. • We want the ball to start moving in a random direction. • Open the properties for the ball object • Add in an Event for when the ball is created. • Choose start moving in all directions at speed 8 • the ball moves 8 pixels for each step of the game.  • If the game is running at the normal speed of 30 frames per second, then there will be 30 steps every second.  • You can change the game speed in the settings tab of the room properties    

  9. Your First Game • Step 6: set a bounce action for when the ball collides with the wall. • Add in an event for when the ball collides with the wall. • Set the ball to bounce. • Step 7: add score • Add in an event to the ball object for when the left mouse button is pressed. • Set the score to 1, but make sure you choose Relative. • Left Button vs Left Press ?? • Relative vs Absolute ??

  10. Your First Game • Step 8: add alarm • Approx every second we will make the ball change direction.  • setting an alarm clock to trigger an event every second. • set the alarm clock when the game first starts, • each time the alarm goes we will make the ball change direction • reset the alarm.

  11. Your First Game • Step 9: add sounds • set a sound(sndBeef1) for when the ball collides with the wall. • set a sound(sndGunshot1) to the ball object for when the left mouse button is pressed. • Create beef1 and gunshot1 sounds • the collision event with the wall • Play sndBeef1 • the left button press event • Play sndGunshot1

  12. Your First Game • Step 10: setting a background • improve the appearance by setting a background. • Step 11: add information • add information to tell the user how to play the game

  13. Your First Game • Step 12: Ending your Game • Let's say we want the game to end when the player's score is 20. • Each time we add to the score, we will check whether the score is equal to 20 Ending the Game more Gracefully • Extension • improve the Ending Game by creating a text object and putting it in an ending room

  14. Your First Game • Extension • Making your Ball Bounce Accurately off Walls • you need to treat horizontal and vertical walls separately.  • Create sprites and objects for a ball, a horizontal wall block and a vertical wall block. • Add a room and draw a box around the ball using the sprites. • start the ball moving in a random direction and set events to make the ball bounce

  48. Maze Game 2 • Add sounds • for picking up the diamonds : sndDiamond • for opening the door : sndDoor. • Place diamonds around your maze. • The objDiamond should have a collision event with the person • It should then play the diamond sound and destroy itself

  49. Maze Game 2 • Place the door so that it blocks access to the target • Don't put any diamonds on the other side of the door! • In the person object • add a collision event with the door object, stopping the person and aligning it with the grid.  • Just the same as you did with the wall object • When all the diamonds are gone, the door should play a sound and destroy itself.  • Add the step event to the door object • Add the 'If the number of instances is a value' action.  (On the Control tab) Choose these options: • Step event : occurs once for every step of the game, which is usually 30 times a second.

  50. Maze Game 2 • play a sound and destroy the door if there are no diamonds left • add block markers to our actions •  Save and play your game to test whether it works as expected.
