Introduction to Game Maker

For anyone planning on attending the Global Game Jam on January 27-29, 2012, GameMaker (http://sandbox.yoyogames.com/gamemaker/try) is a great tool to know about. We will be discussing how GameMaker skills will be helpful for the jam. Just about any of the game ideas (https://www.meetup.com/St-Louis-Game-Developers/photos/1172505/) that were proposed for the "rock game" way back when could be made with this program.
