GameSalad Pro

Gamesalad gets the job done

Opmerkingen: Gamesalad's ease of use of developing apps and preview functions has allowed me to make many applications throughout the years, and I have published my first Android App "Pixels Of Position" through the software in February. I'm very grateful for the software's low cost, ease of use, and helpful and friendly custom,er support. Thank you so very much Team Gamesalad.

Pluspunten:

Gamesalad has its strengths in the ease of use in developing applications and games without code, and allows you to preview the application before publishing.

Minpunten:

The software occasionally crashes on larger projects, and I have had some of my projects become corrupted if the computer goes into sleep mode while saving, mainly my fault for putting the computer to sleep.

Frustrating

Opmerkingen: I've used GameSalad for years, and I just wish that there were more updates and basic features that have been requested numerous times...

Pluspunten:

GameSalad is a code-less platform that can be challenging at times but is capable of developing many styles of games.

Minpunten:

GameSalad is missing some very basic features, that have been requested many times on the forums. The lack of updates and attention is worrying, and I've encountered many bugs and glitches that are extremely frustrating.

Create games have never been so easy

Opmerkingen: It is a great tool for beginners and persons with now experience in programming. It is fun and easy.

Pluspunten:

It is a very easy software to install, even being a software that create code behind you are developing. I have used it in MAC and you do not require help or any technical experience. The way to create games or videos is very intuitive and easy with the drag and drop method, also before the drag and drop you require to configure the characters and think as a programmer but without coding. Also the community to share images and different templates is great, it is easy to export or import any project.

Minpunten:

Is some kind of limited the features you can configure in characters, regardless of if it an enemy or you main character. Also background focus in your main character, but It was not easy to me find how enemies should focus with the background and not with the main character or heroes, because when the heroes is moving, all other objects move left or right depending on it.

Game Salad

Opmerkingen: I was trying to built a game like flappy bird and did it quite easily on Game Salad. It a great choice for beginners or non-programmers to develop their apps

Pluspunten:

As far as I know Game Salad was first of its kind to bring drag and drop type game development. It was a really cool feature when i started using it.

Minpunten:

I wish there had been more tutorials online. However , I used it 2-3 years ago for a hobby project so things may have changed a lot by now.

One of the best learning app

Pluspunten:

They have made it very intuitive. Kids can spend hours learning computer science without getting bored. A lot of options to go through and different ways to understand the concept. Teachers are mostly available for any query of kids. My kid enjoy learning from gamesalad to the fullest. He loves spending time with it.

Minpunten:

You may find some features hard to understand. Teacher sometime takes time to respond to online queries. Overall its a nice package to let your kid engage into some learning activity.
