I want to make a multiplayer game. It won't be like warlight (programming a game like warlight definately seems too complicated!), but it will have a multiplayer aspect where players all over the world can play against each other.


What do I need to learn first? I'm considering using GameMaker.

Learn how to use database.


Firebase looks good. Other is Photon.

Most popular is MySQL.

You need some sort of database for storing your data.


A database is simply "organized data".


JSON is used almost everywhere for networking.

Try ROBLOX game engine.
It is friendly for both expert and beginner.
You can also look at games other people make.

I guess learn SQL and use mySQL if you can. scratch has online multiplayer features if you're at that sort of early stage.
