Simple 2D Game Developing Tool

GameMaker is a simplistic game engine that is great for fast prototypes and 2D games. Events such as collisions, sound, life, and timers are built-in using easily identifiable visual elements. Assets are imported and classified into predetermined categories. Level creation is intuitive where you drag sprites into a grid-aligned space.

Great For Making Indie Games

I enjoy how simple the program is to use as well as how versatile it is. Sprite creation, level making, and export options are fantastic. Many options for export to consoles make this a very worth-while tool for game creation as apposed to using in-house software

Game creation made simple

Drag and drop construction for levels and almost everything, the codeless creation is something important to someone without any experience with programming and still have the oportunity to create his own games without write a line of code. Theres a marketplace so you can buy assets and is very easy to use. Great games get made in GameMaker, you can see the titles in the website.
