Room setup
With our sprites created, we are essentially ready to start making our objects, but first we
need some place where we can actually place our objects. For this, we need a room.
Create a new room now. Go to the
settings
tab on the left side, and name the room
rm_Game
.
Here you can also change the dimensions of your room and in turn, your game. Right now,
the room size defines the total size your game will be on the screen when it is not in full
screen mode. You can change this by changing the
Width
and
Height
values shown in the
preceding screenshot.
If we were using a view, however, the game's size on the screen will be defined by the view
port. These options can be seen on the
views
tab directly above the
settings
tab in the pre-
ceding screenshot.
