How do I make the game's window bigger?
Hello,I recently started using GM:S and I have a problem. I want to make my game's screen bigger but I can't find any options to set the game resolution?
I've never coded before,I would be happy if I can find any way to do this without coding.

You go on the room setting, then you modify size on Settings.
Easy

If you are using views(which I doubt if you have only just started the game window size is the sum of the screen estate that your views require for example two side by side views in your game of 800X800 and 400X800 would give you a total screen size of 1200X800. As I said prolly not relevant for you yet but bear in mind for later.

The game window initializes at the size of the viewports established in the first room of your game; if you don't have views set up, it'll typically size itself to match the room in general as best it can. There are ways to change the resolution down the line, but it's changed a bit over the years and I've not played with it in Studio specifically.

You can also go into the project settings and allow the game window to be resized by the user manually, but this will just stretch the game's image to match the new canvas size.
