Hello!! I'm a fresh, brand new egg to the GameMaker community and the software itself. This may be a long-winded introduction but I hope you'll bear with me haha.
I've had a game idea in my head for a good few years now that I've been putting off because I have zero experience in coding (though I messed with ren'py, I don't really count it...) and GameMaker always seemed... daunting.
This year I decided to go for it and am now currently searching for good tutorials that can get me started. My endgame vision is a puzzle horror game kind of like Ib, Witch's House, Ao Oni, Undertale (minus the battle sequences) etc. So far, I found a recommendation on reddit to watch Tom Francis's videos on Youtube. Would anyone happen to have any other ideas or videos that might pertain to what I'm going for? Of course, all around basics will be necessary too so I'd love your recommendations!
I'm worried this question may seem redundant to experienced users, but lurking and searching on my own has gotten me no where in my previous, sad attempts at trying to create a game. I want to be more proactive in trying to reach this goal, so I'm stepping out of my comfort zone to ask for help.
Thanks for taking the time to read this block of text, and I'm looking forward to participating more, learning, and--hopefully--creating the game I've been wanting to for years :')
