VARMS (Varied Aspect Ratios Management Scripts)

Do you want to get rid of those black bars that appear on the sides of your game that appear when the display is wider or taller than the aspect ratio of your game? And at the same time have GUI elements move accordingly? If "Yes" to both, you are in the right place!

This asset is a must have for everyone who develop games for smartphones and tablets or even those who would like their Windows game(s) to support ultrawide or old square-ish monitors.

Credit is appreciated but not required.

Info:

• This is made for GAMEMAKER STUDIO 2. If you are using a different game making software, this may still be useful for you but it has not been looked into. These scripts could give you an idea for how you should write your code in the game making software you're using.
