This page allows you to access the source code for each individual episode of my free platformer tutorial series for GameMaker.

The full video series can be found here.

Episode 1:

Note: These files are not compatible with the trial version of GMS2 which does not allow .yyz imports! But you can still follow the series on YouTube for free.
