"Building 3D applications in the browser without installation of software."
What do you like best about PlayCanvas?

Playcanvas doesn't require any software ti install and can be run in browser directly. It serves as a better platform for developing 3D game and applications. It also supports developers by providing integration tools like HTML, CSS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlayCanvas?

It doesn't allow much configurations if you are using a trial pack. And for a new user they might face integration difficulties and will get debugging issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great alternative for Unity"

I don't like it's 1GB limitation. But I understand it. I wish there was an educational version. And it also lacks some Youtube resources. The documentation is good but I wish there were more video tutorials Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Rolling ball and gaming platform! What else?!"
What do you like best about PlayCanvas?

I love the fact that with PLayCanvas I can create, edit and further customize my own games and projects. With PlayCanvas, which is in my opinion the best application for game developers, I can not only start my own projects but also invite other people of my team to simultaneously work on my same project!

Classic editor is my favorite one and is the easiest WebGL Game Engine to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlayCanvas?

PlayCanvas often present bugs and I encountered difficulties during updates in the past. Recently I have found PlayCanvas being more user-friendly in respect to the past, so I am overall happy and satisfied with this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great For A Gaming Course"
What do you like best about PlayCanvas?

PlayCanvas is great to be used in schools for any types of gaming classes! This is an open source application that allows users to be able to create their own games. What I like best is how interactive the experience of creating a game on PlayCanvas can be, as it's not just coding but rather using the imagination to be able to construct something using the things that they provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlayCanvas?

The challenge of using PlayCanvas is that there are definitely some difficulties involved in learning how to use this. It takes some time initially to figure out what exactly needs to be done in order to make the game that it is that you want to make. However, that is definitely part of the experience and helps in making PlayCanvas as fun as it is! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Anyone to Use!"
What do you like best about PlayCanvas?

What I really like about PlayCanvas is how it can be used by pretty much anyone! Despite being someone who is the advisor of a programming club in a school, I was not very well-versed in programming and so I began looking for ways I can learn more. I began to love using PlayCanvas so much that I even suggested it to the students and now they love using it to practice! This has been great to use overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlayCanvas?

There aren't a lot of instructions given by PlayCanvas as to how to proceed to whatever it is that users want to do. Hene, it is definitely not user-friendly to those who this is the very first time that they're doing anything related to programming or coding. Therefore, I did not like the fact that I received very little instructions at the beginning of when I began to use this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
