Gamemaker Drag&#8217;n&#8217;Drop). Although both are named GML, only the former is actually a coding language, while GML Visual is only a scripting method &#8211; a way of using the language itself.

Adjust the values\/assets and play around &#8211; it is fun to make stuff and prove your puny peers how <strong>you<\/strong> are the archwizard of gaming!
