Review by Graham: This is an extremely good tool, though I am not very happy about the YoYo Games deal and what I've heard about 7. That and I am presently working on GNU/Linux rather than Microsoft Windows, so now I am building games in GAMBAS (working my way up to C++/Java ;-D). Still for the Windows using beginner (or just someone who wants to do it more easily), I highly recommend this tool. I still remember the fun effects I did using the pseudo-3D first person shooter example... :-)

Review by Dave "yomoneyboat" Lovitz: Excellent, and very easy, however, it will still satisfy serious programmers. Even the scripting language is simple. Get this version, not 7, which is made by a different company. Registration is worth it, you get a multitude of useful features. Most definitely worth your time.
As always,

Review by Anonymous(Spelled wrong?): Its a great program. It will seem confusing at first but you'll figure it out. Check the game maker forums if ya wan't help. just type "Game maker forums" in google.
