Pros

“Security never had a problem with any leaked data or anything of the sort. But can say if you are into creating games it's definately worth trying out if you haven't already.”

Samuel S.

Coder

“This node-based coding is extended to their shader system, which allows us to build out material features with relative ease.”

Derick B.

Environment Artist

“So many options to customize game play and data for the price you pay”

Kat L.

Content creator

Pros

“The system is clear, and yet detailed at the same time, allowing you to do whatever you want in your game without spending too much time searching how to. Plus, it's really popular, so there are tons of tutorials across the internet, and Gdevelop also has its own courses.”

Etân C.

Developer

“For a beginner in game development the no code approach as well as the different behaviors available in the software were rather useful in prototyping and developing my games.”

Ilham S.

IT Programmer

“I observed that running games with high detailed graphics was a strain on my mobile devices which meant that developing games for these devices required optimization.”

Ilham S.

IT Programmer

Cons

“The only thing I didn't like is how complicated the interfaceis cause it's definately overwhelming and can be complicated for beginners like it was for me. But like any other platform until you get to know it you'll get use to it and work your way through it and learn where everything is.”

Samuel S.

Coder

“It has several features that can be simple, such as importing and arranging 3D objects in the environment, but others that are quite complex, such as programming and animating these objects, as well as compiling projects, which can be a headache for those who are not familiar with programming and computing and come from a design background.”

Marcos A.

Manager

“Feedback can often be ignored on their message boards and is quite slow.”

Derick B.

Environment Artist

Cons

“I felt that very limited support for native features in Essential itself and no native support for 3D graphics and custom shaders for more extreme projects.”

Hassan M.

Senior Software Development Engineer

“There is a problem with my cloud, it refuses to open my project, which is annoying. But since I work locally, and it's saved in my pc, it's not much of an issue.”

Lucas A.

Developer

“I faced some difficulties in optimizing the application’s performance especially on the mobile platforms and when dealing with large programs.”
