Let's Make a Tower Defense Game - Week 2 - Database Setup
Creating classes for foe types and tower types! 2.3's struct system makes this MUCH nicer than it would have been in the past.
I record these a bit in advance, but if you want to suggest things go for it! If you want to follow along (or do something similar), this is using GMS 2.3 because the new language features are really nice. 2.3 is currently in open beta, so if you haven't installed it yet you can find it as a download option in your YYG account.
You guys thought I was bad at EBF5? I'm basically a god in EBF5 compared to this. (I probably would have made that joke somewhere in the video except I recorded this a month before that game came out and just put this on the shelf until I needed to fill some time between bigger projects.)

Here's how to set up a basic 3D camera projection in Game Maker Studio 2! The main thing to take away from this is how to use a view and projection matrix. It's actually not that different from 3D in older versions of Game Maker, but it cuts out a lot of the super high-level abstraction. This means in some ways it's easier to use, and in some ways it's harder to use.
Hopefully people like this one better than the old one I did years ago. I'm (finally) going to do more with this in the coming weeks.
Transformation matrices are going to be more useful in the future, but if you want to know about them:

Here's the code (it's only four lines long):

Someone got annoyed at me for this a while ago so I figured I might as well put out an amendment video for the old "moving around" tutorial.

Reza has something for us! It doesn't sound good. He's got something for Maverick, as well.

Memes aside, it's really good, I recommend giving it a look.

Surely nobody has ever made this titular joke before. We make it to the Hidden Machina Village checkpoint, and I decide to make Naruto references like it’s still 2009!

Reyn bit off more than he could chew in the spider's nest in Tephra Cave and we have to go bail him out. There's a life lesson in there somewhere, isn't there?
