I know it isnt great, but I thought it was all right for a first shot. If you can provide any improvants I would gratefully accept them! here is the link to it: http://rapidshare.co...plat22.exe.html
I dont think it deserves a story line but hey just download it and give it a shot! How to move is right arrow key goes right, left arrow key goes left, up arrow key is jump, z is shoot and u have to collect the jewels and kill all the soldiers and destroy their cars(there is only 2). Just try it and give feedback if u can!! Oh yeah and thanks to c++er who helped me with the code (i dont think hes on this site, but he deserves a thank u)

Umm.. You could tell more from the game in here. Then this get alot of more attention, and I suggest you to add screenshots...
And please make .exe file instead of .gmk file. People can steal everything from your game.
And I got several errors while playing, please fix these, and test your game before testing:

ERROR in
action number 1
of  Step Event
for object me:

Error in code at line 25:
	   if ( para == false )
			^
at position 11: Unknown variable para

___________________________________________
ERROR in
action number 1
of Collision Event with object platform
for object me:

Error in code at line 3:
		   if ( left )
				^
at position 15: Unknown variable left

ERROR in
action number 1
of  Step Event
for object me:

Error in code at line 28:
		   vspeed = -jumpheight
					 ^
at position 20: Unknown variable jumpheight

For a first game it was just okay. Probably the shortest game I've played, but I'm sure it was a good practice for you.
The mechanisms used in the game seems very similar to the tutorials on the site, correct me if I'm wrong.

I found one critical thing about your game. The color of the bullet blends with the background so that the player has a real hard time seeing where the bullet goes.

I think next step for you, is to keep working on this template and adding your own sprites and sounds and give it a unique touch so it differs from other platforms.
I actually liked that you've made it so that you have to go left instead of right. Special things like that gives a big up

Looking forward to see a future version

Cool, in the middle of adding new levels. Ill change the colour of the bullet, as well. Yeah the mechanisms r from this site kinda, i found this guy called c++er on the chat engine on one of these sites and he said to send him the game and fix the problems I was having and he did so thank you very much to him. Do u know any good code tutorials because I really want to learn the GML coding language?

Okay, I didnt test the new version just yet, but now it is .exe file, and that's good.
I got few tips for you:

Here is Tutorial Site
http://gmc.yoyogames...hp?showforum=28

If you have a problem with anything, like an error or you don't know what to do:
http://gmc.yoyogames...php?showforum=2

And this is a Good GML learning tutorial (didn't check for it 'cause I know pretty much GML )
http://gmc.yoyogames...howtopic=151003

Good Luck! And Welcome to the GMC -forums.

Okay, so I tested the game.

Good:
-You have own view (not just large room without following view on player)
-Good for first game (better than mine )
-Good graphics (The soldiers, But I think you should give credits for the guys who made those, same for the rain effect. It's from tutorial site)

Bad:
-Really big file (5,5mB) (To prevent that, don't add music, they also have Copyrights, so you dont get trouble if you remove them. Try to ask from Sounds and music -category for music, they could create a music for you)
-Well, too short and I didnt even know how to shoot. Perhaps a tutorial for the game (Example you are in army and you have to learn use guns etc...)
-No story (but for first game, seldomly you see any)

Good anyways, needs more improving and more time to make.
If you have anything to ask use "Novice and Intermidiate" -section. You could also ask from me.
