Good entry point, strong community with a lot of resources.

Game Maker is deceptively simple to start using, and it has powerful features under the hood. I use game maker for programming complex games with many objects, scripts, and interactions, but it's simple to get started using as well. Perfect for the beginner and extensible for the pro.

Good introduction to easy game design

Gamemaker requires absolutely no coding knowledge, and allows you to create your first game within a few hours of work. It comes preloaded with some examples, but can be expanded fast.
