Build High Performance Cross Platform 2D Games Using A Drag & Drop Editor
Create Games Faster Than Writing Native Code!
Use SWF vector animations / artwork that render on every platform. Or use image assets at multiple resolutions (1x, 2x, 3x) and let GBS handle scaling on different devices.
If you are a coder use GBs for visual layout and access everything created in the editor via code. Our underlying game engine is open-source. (PRO Only)
This is the ONLY platform that enables you to develop iOS games on Windows

Create Multiplayer Games Without Writing A Line Of Code
Leverage the Yahoo Networks server infrastructure and build in multiplayer features into your game. We've made the process as simple as possible. Upload a pre-built server file onto your Yahoo account and have the multiplayer plugin match players, join shared rooms, and send properties to all connected players just by triggering a game action. Even save game data to a remote no sql database using key value pairs.
High Performance 2D Game Engine
GameBuilder Studio is built on the highly optimized open source 2D rendering engine known as Starling. We cross compile to different platforms using the first in class award winning Adobe AIR compiler. We leverage the highest performance physics and GPU accelerated rendering frameworks under the hood. Making your games run blazingly fast across all major web browsers and native mobile platforms.
Multi-layer Development Stack
Working in a team? Develop on different layers with GameBuilder Studio. Designers can leverage the highest level of the GameBuilder development stack, which is our visual tool. Programmers can leverage the second layer and move between both layers to grab full control of the final game code. This is the best hybrid game development solution. You can access everything created visually in-editor by reference via code. You can even completely alter the startup sequence and flow of your game via code. The editor generates game code and outputs everything in-editor to xml files.
Extend The Editor With Plugins
GameBuilder Studio uses one of the best enterprise level ui development frameworks (Flex) for its UI. You can write engine components in AS3 and create your own custom properties panel using Apache Flex and custom Spark Skinning. Have you developed a custom particle engine or animation system? Develop a completely custom integrated ui panel for it with ease.
Open Source Game Engine
No need to wait on us. If there is something you need added to GameBuilder Studio develop a custom plugin yourself. Found a minor bug in the underlying game engine, then submit a report or fix it and submit a change request to us via Github. The GameBuilder Engine is open-source and publicly accessible.
