GAME CREATOR
Game Creator is an ecosystem that gives Unity developers a world class technology platform from which they can build games that work seamlessly across multiple platforms quickly and efficiently.
In this pages you’ll learn everything you need to start using Game Creator like a PRO. Alternatively you can watch our 15 minute Quickstart playlist on Youtube.
For Artists & Game Designers
If you are a game designer chances are you don’t really feel comfortable with code. At let’s be honest: Making games involves coding. Like a lot.
Some Visual Scripting solutions might ease the road a little bit, but after a couple of hours you end up making a spaghetti code. Game Creator comes with a visual scripting solution with a twist; it’s displayed as a node-graph layout but as a vertical list. Each Action is sequentially executed from top to bottom and the next won’t start until the previous one has finished.
Each Action is a high-level instruction. That means that unlike other scripting solutions, you don’t need to deal with trigonometry. For example, when making a character follow the player you would normally need to subtract both positions, then normalize the result to get the direction vector and finally change the character’s position by this vector multiplied by a certain speed, multiplied again by Time.deltaTime...
Ew! Boooring! With Game Creator you have an Action called Move Character To that does that: move a character to a specified destination. Under the hood it does a bunch of things, but that is all transparent to you.
See the Game Creator Components section for more information on what Game Creator can offer to you.
For Programmers
If you are a coder you will fall in love with Game Creator’s architecture. It’s made to be easy to use and extremely extendable. Check our Extend Game Creator section to see how you can hack it. Why waste time reinventing the wheel?
Do you have existing coded tools? We’re happy to say that they most likely work with Game Creator out of the box.
