ACTION GAME MAKER and Godot Engine
What is ACTION GAME MAKER?
ACTION GAME MAKER is a customized version of Godot Engine, one of the “software for creating games” commonly referred to as game engines, similar to Unity and Unreal. It has been designed so that even people with no programming knowledge can use it.
What kind of engine is Godot Engine? What can it do?
Godot Engine is a game engine that has seen rapid growth in usage in recent years.
It is a versatile game engine capable of creating games of any genre, offering high-performance capabilities with a wide range of features comparable to Unity and Unreal Engine.
Games are being developed not only for PC but also for mobile devices and Nintendo Switch. For examples of games created with Godot Engine, please view the official showcase below:
As shown above, while Godot Engine is a powerful game engine capable of creating any type of game, the ability to handle programming is essential. ACTION GAME MAKER is designed to allow people who cannot program to use Godot Engine by providing a dedicated visual scripting system.
Since all 2D features of Godot Engine are available, ACTION GAME MAKER enables the creation of 2D games similar to those in the showcase.
What kind of games can be made with visual scripting?
You might be wondering: “Even if Godot is such a powerful engine, wouldn’t the games that can be made be limited if using visual scripting instead of programming?”
The visual scripting system in this product is inherited from the previous title, “Action Game Tsukuru MV.” In that previous title, due to the high flexibility of its visual scripting system, works were created in various genres, not just jump-and-run action games, but also shooting games, fighting games, puzzle games, RPGs, and more.
Furthermore, more than 60 games have been released on Nintendo Switch™.
“ACTION GAME MAKER” combines the visual scripting system inherited from the previous title “Action Game Tsukuru MV” with the advanced features of Godot.
