What do you like best about GDevelop?

GDevelop used to create games in 2D with provided drag and drop editor in this platform.

To use this platform one should not particularly need its application and users can make implementation and development of games on its website directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GDevelop?

GDevelop provides more features to develop 2D games only. Its better to make this platform support for 3D games development. Games made with this platform doesn't support cross compatibility and customer support is also average. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GDevelop?

By this platform we can easily make some cool games. It's easy to use for non-experienced people. In this platform has we can create both 2 dimensional games (2d) and 3 dimensional games (3d). This platform has some modules are paid only. But it is worthable for that money I my view. It also stores developed games in GDevelop cloud. These can teach how to create a game without programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GDevelop?

I don't have to write code to build games! Although I am a software engineer, I don't have experience in building games. It was a surprisingly fun experience while making games with GDevelop. GDevelop also provide sa lot of useful tutorials to help me how to use their platform to build games. Another thing I love is their app can be launched on different OS including Linux. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GDevelop?

I cannot think of anything I don't like for now. If I have to pick up one thing, I'd say GDevelop has a lot of limitations on 3D stuff, and can't do complex games. But if you are only looking into building simple games, GDevelop is good enough for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GDevelop solving and how is that benefiting you?

GDevelop is really intuitive and amazingly fast. It is a pleasant experience even in the browser version to make games using this fun tool. The ready-made behaviours make prototyping a snap and the syntax employed to create your own logic is really easy to get started with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GDevelop?

GDevelop still has lot of potential features implementing which can make gdevelop even better and possibly the best. More code support in gdevelop along with the drag and drop feature can let devs develop games with more complex logic Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GDevelop solving and how is that benefiting you?

GDevelop is a state of the art game development engine which provides easy to learn UI for developing robust games fast. This helps in quick prototyping and developing concepts to reality faster than ever. Ranging from concept prototypes to full fleged games, gdevelop has made it easy and fast to develop and deploy games and has cut down the develop deploy cycle with its wide range of supported platforms.

What do you like best about GDevelop?

The drag and drop features, requiring zero code, to edit and create a game, makes this an amazing app. To top it off, you can use it online without any downloads! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GDevelop?

The editing screen is cluttered and can be overwhelming for new users. You have to hover over different buttons to figure out what they are and/or do, which makes it less user friendly at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GDevelop solving and how is that benefiting you?

GDevelop allows beginners to create games without paying someone or spending money on subscriptions. It's also able to be used in education sectors for higher elementary and beyond students as an introduction to game design or a fun STEM activity. Teachers could also use this to make educational games for their students, without any cost and little time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
