Make A Game #14: Menu fixes, HUD and power-ups VIDEO
Thanks to Daniel Calatayud Ferrández for spotting the mouse_x problem, and to uzusan for pointing out the screen res fix! The usual notes:
1. Here's the playlist of all the parts so far: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUtKzyIe0aB2HjpmBhnsHpK7ig0z7ohWw
2. We're using the free 'Standard' edition of Game Maker Studio 1.4 for Windows, which you can grab here: http://www.yoyogames.com/studio/download
3.. If you're trying to follow this and it's not working, download the source code for this part from here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/368nuqqpg9lz1su/AADYdbXud4XM62v1Df1bb7Fta?dl=0
And open it in Game Maker. If it works, your code must be different somewhere, so look for that. If it doesn't work, it's something to do with Game Maker or your computer and I don't know anything about that.
4. I'll probably be doing about 1 episode a week now, but there's no strict schedule.
