GDevelop: Free, Fast, Easy Game Engine - No-code, Lightweight, Super Powerful | GDevelop GDevelop is a free, fast, easy, open-source game engine. Learn 2D and 3D game development with our tutorials. Publish everywhere: iOS, Android, Steam...

If that sounds interesting to you, or if you tried GDevelop in the past, give it a try: gdevelop.io
or come help us making the best open-source, super fast, lightweight, incredibly accessible game creation app in the world: github.com/4ian/GDevelop 🥰

We're glad to see not only hobbyists, but also indie developers and large game studios using GDevelop. And we're seeing an uptick in its adoption in education.
And we're about to launch a new, integrated, complete course to learn GDevelop directly from the app.

With both a strong commercial ecosystem and a strong open-source project and contributors, we can go very far, and build the foundation, go-to solution for creating games (of all kinds) or any interactive media.
Anyone can build something with GDevelop.

But that's not the only thing. A game engine can be good, but you need an ecosystem around it. That's why it's open-source and that's why the GDevelop company is building commercial offerings: cloud projects, leaderboards, multiplayer, cloud builds, education plans, ads support..

Building a great game editor is good. It's even better when it's made to be super accessible, like a design tool, with an intuitive system of behaviors that can be composed and "visual" events so that "coding" is fast, concise and does not need in-depth knowledge of a language.

Our goal with GDevelop is not to make the best open-source game engine in the world - though that would be a nice side effect! We're there to build on top of state-of-the-art, industry standard open-source technologies (think: PixiJS, Three.js, Jolt) to make them super accessible

Looks like my baby engine is now a grown-up!
Now with 3D, 3D physics, multiplayer, prefabs - all open-source - but also an entire ecosystem (asset store, cloud builds, leaderboards, player accounts, 100s of extensions, premium templates). And it's just the beginning ⬇️⬇️
