GameMaker - Asteroids - Part C

I've now finished the Asteroid and the google drive link is here.
Like before, the tutorials were a little fast paced for me but I managed to keep up by asking for help or re-watching the videos. I also, again, found that I made several typing errors especially when I though I knew what I was doing and did not follow the tutorials.This time however, I had problems with trying out some new ideas that were not used in the videos and which I came up with myself. I wanted to assign different image indexes of the same sprite to different on objects. This was a little confusing for a while, but with a little help and eventually realizing that I couldn't use a shortcut got me to get what I wanted. Other than that I made some artistic changes in the way the background, spaceship and asteroids looked. I also tried to change the mechanics of the game, in this case, by making the bullets that shoot out of the ship what propel the ship.

Blender - Mushroom

I created a mushroom in the program Blender which is based on a tutorial which can be seen  here . Making the mushroom it was necessary to make a texture that shows up as a 2D image like  this . Unfortunately, after I tried to add more of a curve to my mushroom, I overlapped UPDATE: google doc links for my texture: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pvV1wl_wucLXwIbkilf9hS55Xozkr_94/view?usp=sharing  and .blend file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z_NbJv-Yc13QFLfwofa8uZStwidvvCux/view?usp=sharing

Final Project Proposal

For my end of the year project, I'll be trying to create a side scrolling version of Galaga. I'll try to learn about how to spawn enemies, program their attacks and how to make them harder. I'd also like to learn how to create a background that moves along with the walls. I plan to use these tutorials:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuMgS3WuXuGLYr5YOOPK1lC7wWgcLuGlP  , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3j4YGL9KZ8 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euAEr7Z7Pks  and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEYBchjw_Ts I want to change things by obviously changing the art used, but I'd also like to make it multiplayer to make things more interesting, with "teaming-killing" to be more realistic. I'll probably make small changes on the way as well. It will likely be divided into about 4 big,main steps, prep(looking at a few videos at home to gain knowledge in case tutorials move to fast), design, coding(might do this while i'm designing) and finishing to...
