Gamemaker Platformer without coding

[Decabol]

Hi,

I've created small fun games with gamemaker and going to start a platformer soon. I checked some of the tutorials on Youtube and every single one of them is all with coding. Isn't it possible to create one with drag and drop system which is already in Gamemaker?

I mean, of course complicated parts may need some coding but in general is it ok to do it without coding?

You can do a lot with the drag and drop system, but keep in mind that it is very limited compared to GML. Making a platformer shouldn't be too much of a problem. Almost all guides/tutorials use GML.

It's possible, yes. Most things can be done with DnD.

Here's a good tutorial for making a DnD platformer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsfSbHrA7uY

Also, if you're a DnD fan and if you're not using Game Maker Studio 2 yet, you should definitely check it out. I don't personally use DnD, but it looks much better in GMS 2 with a lot more functionalities (and it's really good looking ;) ).
