Views
In GameMaker, a view is a defined area of the screen that is viewable in the game window.
These can be resized to create zoom effects or to make only a part of the room visible to the
player at any one time. Views are commonly used to make a camera that follows the player
through a level as they play. This limits the player's view of the entire level to only the
amount defined by the developer.
