I was trying to learn how to use Game Maker Studio a while back for the same reason. Its more of a 2D engine which I figured would be a lot easier than trying to make a 3D game. Plus I really like the old SNES games from when I was growing up. I finally gave up when my computer couldnt seem to handle the software needed. Im building a new computer so that wont be an issue. Im still at a loss to how to program even simple code though so it'll be a while if ever I do make a game. I have all these grand ideas for game mechanics that are probably completely impractical and I'll have to condense down into something I might be able to code. Maybe if enough people are interested we should start a study thread for people working on their own games. If anything to shoot game ideas at each other.
