Computer game creation is a fascinating but very complex subject,
and this complexity can be off -putting to many. However, you
shouldn't lose heart if you want to learn how to create great
games; all you need is this book, some enthusiasm, and a good
imagination. The Game Maker's Apprentice shows you how to create 9
complete, exciting games of different types (action, adventure,
puzzle, and more) using the wildly popular Game Maker game creation
tool, complete with professional quality sounds and visuals. It
also teaches you all you need to know about game design theory
(challenges, learning curves, level design etc) and programming to
give you a solid grounding in game design. Game Maker uses an easy
drag-and-drop interface for the most part, so you don't need to
have any coding experience to start creating games. It also
features a built-in programming language to allow you to add
advanced features to your games. You can progress to using this
when you are ready. Go to http: //www.gamemaker.nl/ for more
information.

It is perfect for beginners in Game Maker, but for professionals, its way too slow. Kinda nice though, the part I've read so far! But not that good to buy... but if you're beginning to use this software, its a perfect purchase!
