no need to improve the graphics to look like a pro.
many students can draw the player like a "ball", and the enemy like a "strawberry". (just joking a little.. there are many sprite resources with gamemaker, or 3rd party websites).
i think environments like gamemaker are atractive to students, because they can achieve fast results at first.. and they can add more complex code later.
in another side, i think many users will think they can have a game "like a pro" and they will be dissapointed, trying many software of this type. IMHO its great to start with this.. but you will not get the next call of duty :)
