In this video I show how to create a turn based battle system like the ones you'd see in the traditional Final Fantasy games or other RPG's, and did I mention it's for 2D platformers? ^)^

Also, I added some music in this video to spouse up the mood (because trust me, if I didn't, this video would bore you to the point of tears)

And here is the code from the obj_player_battle object used in this video:

Draw event:

draw_text(view_xview+80,view_yview+5,"Your Health: "+string(global.health))
draw_sprite(sprite_index,image_index,x,y)
;
