About this game

Pixel Game Lab is a creative game studio for kids. Draw your own pixel-art characters, build levels, and turn them into real games you can play and share.

Designed by the educators at Game Design Academy and used in elementary school game-design programs.

WHAT YOU CAN MAKE
- Concept Art: sketch your characters and worlds.
- Pixel Art: draw animated heroes, companions, enemies, bosses, tiles, and decorations.
- Level Design: build worlds with terrain, traps, doors, keys, moving platforms, and more.
- Games: package your art and levels into a real, playable game.

PLAY AND SHARE
- Play your creations in a full game engine: run, jump, climb, and battle.
- Team up in co-op and play a level together with a friend.
- Explore a catalog of games made by other kids and creators, free to play.

SAFE BY DESIGN
- Kids create with a username only. We do not collect a child's real name.
- Everything shared is reviewed by our team before it goes public.
- Report and block tools are on every public item, and there is no open chat, messaging, voice, or video.

PLANS
Pixel Game Lab is free to start with the Demo plan. Optional subscriptions (Standard, Extended, and Pro) give you more space to create and download characters, levels, and games, plus publishing and community features. A grown-up check is shown before any purchase, and children cannot buy a subscription.

Ratings and reviews

Good app. My kids love it, they are making characters and placing them in game levels. It is actually pretty awesome.

This is better than other game maker apps honestly, so easy to use. You can make a basic game in few hours.

My son created his own game on this app and now we can play it on my phone! This is amazing and so easy to use. I'm impressed!
