Ratings and reviews

Computer user. Really good for 2D games and maybe top down scrolling RPG games. A suggestion though, would love a 3D game creator. I know people have made 3D games, but they're really complicated and smaller than what they could be. I know this was probably intended for learning, but just having a 3D creator would be awesome. This could work with stuff like camera angles, 1st and 3rd person views like that. Maybe some extra blocks could do, camera, chunk generator, and a 3D modeling screen.

It's a great app, convenient and fun to mess around while on the go or without access to the website, but it's so dang hard to touch or edit costumes on a phone with my fingers. I hope you'll fix this soon, because I wanna keep using the mobile app! Edit: Well, I guess it makes sense it's for tablets and such, it's a good app then because you'd be using mouse and keyboard anyways!

Customer support couldnt be any worse they automatically respond with some garbage about looking up the online forums which dont help because they are for the PC version. There seems to be no possible way to export or share any projects built in the android version of this app. I suggest avoid this garbage at all cost!! *EDIT: Even after years since my previous review, customer service still sucks, the android phone version STILL does not have any functioning export options, STILL AVOID!!!!!!!!!
