Thanks in advance!

I'm mildly new at GM 7, and I'm looking for a couple others who are in the same boat. We could all learn together making some games along the way. PM if interested.

To begin learning GM? I've tried tutorials, but they do not seem to help me. What is a good first guide to learning ALL the basics?

How does one make cutscenes? For a first try, I want to make one with a few pictures, along with my recorded voice playing, telling the story. How would I make this and incorporate it?

How much longer do you think GM will still be alive and kicking? A few years, a few months, or is it near the verge of destruction?

I think a few years myself.
