Thank you!

Just one thing, if you want to move with "w,a,s,d" how do you write it in gml?

[111Studio]

if (keyboard_check(ord('W'))){/*move code here*/}

ord('[LETTER]') is used to get the keycode for a letter.

Would appreciate if you guys made a RPG/Platofrmer example.

This is not a tutorial on how to make games, its supposed to teach you the basics of GML (game maker language). I'm sure that if you search the forums you'll find what you need there.
