Good job. Couldn't have done better myself.

I, myself, am a Game Maker user and this code is pretty easy. I've been using it since '03!

Nice... I was going to make this, but now I don't have to .

The code works, but first we must create an object, and create those events, and put the code snippets in the right events. Then we need to put the object in a room.
I have made an alternate version where all you need to do is to create a room (Game Maker will not let you run the game otherwise) and put my code in the room creation code. Voila
