Built while learning GML.
Version 1.5.0.1 download: https://forums.mfgg.net/showthread.php?tid=797&pid=9609#pid9609
Two control options: 1. Keyboard and left mouse button or 2. Keyboard and left control key.
Increase your multiplier by shooting down enemies without missing or letting any get away.

From looking at the video, the game looks quite solid. Nice work! Can't wait to see what else you cook up!
RE: My First Game Maker Studio 2 Game - SonicZetrex - 04-27-2018
Pretty darn solid, for a game first made.
RE: My First Game Maker Studio 2 Game - VinnyVideo - 04-27-2018
This is pretty cool! I'm looking forward to seeing you do more neat things with the latest version of GM.
If you're finished with this, why not add an online high scores system? It would enhance the game's replay value, and it's easy to implement (especially if you ask a Vinny about it!).
Usually you want a sound effect to play any time something important happens in a game. So I'd recommend adding a sound for every time you get a health refill. You could even add a subtle sound for when an enemy UFO escapes, since that causes you lose points.
Also, for the "play again" prompt, I'd recommend having one button to let you play again, and another button to end the game.
Fun Fact: As far as I'm aware, you're only the second MFGGer to make a game in GM Studio 2.
RE: My First Game Maker Studio 2 Game - Pedigree - 04-29-2018
New version: 1.5.0.1
Changes:
- Score ticks up slower as suggested in feedback. @TheHappyFaceKing
- Added an Exit Button when the player dies in addition to the Respawn and Play Again buttons. @VinnyVideo
- Added sound effects for collecting health, shield, and for ufo escaping.
- Added an icon under the healthbar as an indicator of your temporary invulnerability from the shield powerup.
- EDIT: Quick fix for score not ticking up after the player respawns.
Thank you all for your feedback and kind words, I greatly appreciate it!
Vinny, I'll have to look at online scoring later, as this is only the beginning of my GML journey! It is noted as an addition for then, though!

My final entry for the Minigame Competition: QWERKY Controls:
Download
You're a Cheep Cheep, just trying to survive and collect shiny things in the deep!
Left click to swim, middle click to pause and right click to tail whip your foes. Updated version after the competition will probably add some more features, but I'm running out of time to work on this for now.

The graphics in Cheep-Cheep in the Deep are adorable. It's a cute concept that could use a little more refining.
The difficulty doesn't increase as the game progresses, so it doesn't hold your attention for very long. I'd suggest making enemies appear more frequently as time goes on (and perhaps adding different kinds of enemies).
It would be nice if there was an audible cue before a Torpedo Ted appeared.
It seems you earn a random number of points when you defeat a Torpedo Ted. Why is that?
It's a little annoying to click every time you want to move. Consider tinkering with the controls to make the Cheep-Cheep move as long as you're holding down the left mouse button, instead of moving each time you press the left mouse button.
RE: My Game Maker Studio 2 Projects - Mors - 05-10-2018
i'd suggest you to make the room speed 60 for your future games because, well, 60 fps is much better than 30 lol. i also don't think forcing the cursor to stay inside the game window is a good idea.
otherwise it's pretty decent for someone who's just started to learn gamemaker
RE: My Game Maker Studio 2 Projects - Pedigree - 05-21-2018
Download Here
Updated Cheep Cheep in the Deep to version 2.0 with the following changes:
- Game should run at 60 fps now.
- Game in fullscreen to remove the need to lock the cursor into the window.
- You can now hold down left click to swim instead of individual presses.
- Enemy spawns, behavior, etcetera increase the difficulty over time.
- New enemy type that chases you.
- Powerups! Mushroom boosts your health or score while the Dash Pepper boosts your speed for a limited time.
- Increased the range of the Tail Whip.
- Audio cue for when Torpedo Ted appears.
- Assorted bug fixes.
These should cover both @Mors and @VinnyVideo's feedback. Let me know what you think.
RE: My Game Maker Studio 2 Projects, Cheep Cheep v2 - VinnyVideo - 05-21-2018
The new version is a big improvement. I'm glad you took our feedback and used it to refine the game.
RE: My Game Maker Studio 2 Projects, Cheep Cheep v2 - Mariotroid - 06-09-2018
I really liked this game. It was well done and original
You have a neat style, I would love to see more work pedigree!!

I've uploaded my Game Maker Studio 2 projects and provided the source files and stuff to share my learning experiences. All I ask is that you don't just republish this stuff as your own work with no effort. Fair warning, the Cheep Cheep project isn't very well commented LOL
