Make your stuff

Your images.
Ready to play.

Drop in a PNG and turn it into a character, coin, hazard, or prop. The Item Creator lets you set how it behaves — without writing a line of code.

  • Hit shapes from art: Collision follows your image’s silhouette.
  • Ready-made behaviours: Patrol, jump, collect, push, and more — pick what fits.
  • Any size art: Small pickups or larger bosses — scale to match your style.

Build levels

Place tiles.
Tell a story.

The Level Editor is a drag-and-drop canvas: lay out platforms, enemies, goals, and secrets. Grow a level as big as you need for a short adventure or a longer run.

  • Only nearby things run: The engine focuses on what’s on screen so bigger maps stay playable.
  • Simple physics toys: Pushable blocks, water, mud, and other floaty tiles for light puzzles.
  • Your own worlds: Multiple games and levels in one place — switch and keep building.

What’s included

Enough tools to finish a small game — not a studio suite to learn for months.

Villain AI

Simple behaviours so enemies can patrol, chase, or react when you’re nearby.

Solid collisions

Careful collision handling so fast moves don’t clip through walls and floors.

Several games

Keep more than one project on your account and jump between them when you like.

No build step

Edit, save, play — all in the browser. Nothing to compile or install.
