Have you ever dreamed about creating your very own computer games? Sure you have. But having no kind of programming skills is probably the reason you never tried to built such a game from scratch.
Game Maker Lite is an awesome compiler which allows you to create mini games, without having to code anything.
All steps are done through a drag-and-drop technique. Simply give the software the command you want, and it shall do as requested.
But if you are keen to learn a gaming programming language, then Game Maker Lite can be switched to advanced mode.
This will allow you to go through more difficult settings and learn a trick or two about how to code a game.
With simple options in easy mode you can create sprites, sounds, backgrounds, object, and rooms - everything a simple game needs to come to life!
More experienced users can also play with paths, scripts, fonts, and time lines, in order to give that extra spark to your own game. Build it in 2D or 3D.
Once you have created an executable, you can choose to publish your new game online, and share it with the rest of the world. Who knows what opportunities might come up...
One small disadvantage of Game Marker Lite is that it uses plenty of memory resources. In addition, some first-time users may experience difficulties even in easy mode, if they are not patient enough to perform a "game test".
In conclusion, Game Maker Lite is an excellent software for users who want to build games, or learn a new programming language. It's especially recommended for young children who want to introduce themselves in the world of programmers.
