This is a tutorial for how to make a game, aimed at absolute beginners! Today I try to do a neat effect and it's trickier than I imagined. If you have any trouble following, I did an optional recap video to explain better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-dSxy22UsI
Usual info:

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 for Windows, which you can grab here: http://www.yoyogames.com/studio/download

3. I do about 2-4 episodes a week, whenever I have time, there's no more specific schedule than that.

4. Here's the source code for what we've made so far, in case you have any trouble following this: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/368nuqqpg9lz1su/AADYdbXud4XM62v1Df1bb7Fta?dl=0
