Platform Builder

Let your creative spirit shine and create your own 2D side-scrolling platformer games. Platform Builder is designed to be user-friendly and quick to learn, yet powerful and sophisticated to allow maximum control and a whole lot of fun! You are in command to design your own characters, levels, enemies, items, and more. All of this can be done without learning a single line of code! Games and levels can be shared and played straight from Platform Builder, giving you the opportunity to publish your creations and check out what others in our community have done.
