Animated menus in Game Maker 8 tutorial
All games have menus so here is an easy to follow tutorial on how to add animated menus to your games in Game Maker. You can use this guide for any type of game and learning how to create your own buttons only takes a few minutes.
For this tutorial some stock sprite graphics are used but for the result you should design some custom button sprites in the graphical style of your game. Adding a background image and sounds also creates a great impression.
