I've been using Game maker for a while now, and although I have been constantly testing my knowledge and aspiring to learn more. I can't quite make that transition from intermediate to advanced programming. Basically, i'm okay but i'm not going to be making any of the big games I desire to make anytime soon, (or anything that i'm going to be happy with) without having a better knowledge of the topics I've yet to learn, and the math that comes with it. imo
I released a topic very similar to this a while back on the old forums when I had only a basic understanding of gamemaker here http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=678888 and I am happy to say that i've learned a lot more since then and am more confident in game maker than I was.
I understand people learn differently, and my preferred way of learning so far, although annoying, is through trial and error, and through visual learning. I also like reading books.
Q:So, out of curiosity, and eagerness to learn as much as I can. What books and/or ANY resources do people like to use to learn more intermediate-advanced programming (or any at all) and why would you recommend it?
Any input from anyone is appreciated.
