If you're thinking of getting into videogame creation, or you're already initiated and looking to move on to a better platform, this app can help you find which option will better suit your needs, without going through the hours of drudgery of locating and investigating options available. No more Internet hunting for the one or two pieces of relevant information, or trying to guess if a certain service is still "alive" or not.
The selection in this app aims at offering a high volume of options, all of them validated by the test of time, quality, and strong supportive communities. There are so many options available for game makers that there is no point in covering them all, but here you will find, side by side, at least one remarkable representative of each of the main options: online vs downloadable; game creating social networks vs more professional, heavy featured oriented systems; programming-based interface vs drag-and-drop or mixed systems. Many of these services are offered free of charge or include free of charge entry level options, and they allow the creation of games for all available platforms, both traditional and mobile.
With a no-frills interface and a small download size, the app intends to act as an easy 'bridge' between the information from the main game making sites and each user's needs. The range covered will help you to get an overview of what to expect regarding game creators, and take a better decission. The landing pages have been carefully chosen so that you can most quickly get the jist of each product at a glance, with quickly access to the most reliable information on each of the platforms, always updated and in one single place. You can just take a peek and be quickly informed and move on, deepen your knowledge if you find an option that is more worthwhile to you, or even, if you've already made up your mind, go ahead and take the next step in the service you prefer, directly from your device screen.
