Let’s say you have an idea for a video game. It could be a first-person action game starring a snail on the (slow) run from the law, or a multiplayer game featuring only pugs. There’s only one problem: You’ve never built a game before. You don’t know how to program.You don’t know any 3D artists. Google has come up with a solution.
Area 120, Google’s workshop for experimental projects, has released a prototype called Game Builder, and it is free on Steam for PC and Mac.
Game Builder is a video game for PC and Mac that lets you build any kind of 3D game using drag-and-drop tools. There’s no coding required and no messing with Javascript. However if you want more control over what you create, Game Builder comes with an extensive API that allows you to script almost everything in the game. All the code is live, so just make a change and save it, no compiling required.
