Here's a sniper Joe example I made for funs and also for some people i'm friends with irl who are getting into Game Maker. It's full of comments to make following and understanding it simple. It features Sniper Joe, who hops in place, shoots his gun, and raises his shield. When his HP runs out, he has a traditional MegaMan style death, and a new Sniper Joe spawns to take his place.
