Nintendo DS Game Maker v5.12 Tutorial series

[Rarz]

Hello everyone,

I have downloaded the DS Game Maker after recently purchasing an original first gen DS, and have been playing around with it and started work on a project. I have used the manual instructions to get me started as well as analyzing the example files. I want to make a YouTube short video tutorial series which contains bite sized clips that instructs and aids users in making certain actions or concepts (e.g. make a "Touch to Start" screen).

I will upload the links to this thread as I get around to learning more of the Game Maker and as I record and upload the videos.

I am planning to learn and make tutorials for both 4.9 and 5.12. 4.9 seemed much more natural to me than 5.12. I found 5.12 to have the programming part much more simple, whereas 4.9 had the overall layout and visualisation more simple.

I love the fact that DS Game Maker allows you to look at the files well and you can learn so much from it. Thank you for the kind words!!
