The Little Engine That Could.

Let’s take a look under the hood

The inspiration for making Buildbox was to carve our own path and truly make software that was different.  We tried every game building software on the market and found they all had one thing in common:  They were extremely difficult to use.  Unless you knew scripting or complex gaming algorithms, it was going to be a hard path creating something great.  With Buildbox, we’ve changed all of that.

Because of the proprietary Infinity Engine, you can create complete games in Buildbox by simply dropping in images and moving sliders.  The engine creates nearly every type of scrolling game imaginable from classic console platformers to arcade space shooters.  With the inclusion of the easy to use level editor, making complex interactive levels in your games is faster than ever.

The adventure begins

There are two ways you can use the Infinity Engine.  New users will want to most likely use the built in presets that change all of the options of the engine from gravity and character speed to screen orientation and game direction.  These presets allow you to create fun proven game types with the click of a button.  You can quickly make classic gameplay styles such as platformers, running, space shooter, jumping, flappy, dogfight, racing and more.

More adventurous users of Buildbox will want to dive into the advanced settings where they can adjust 25 different sliders that will alter the laws of the universe in their game.  Since Buildbox doesn’t use a templated system, the possibilities really are limitless.  You can create phenomenal games that the world has never seen.

It’s also easy to start with a basic preset then edit it to make it uniquely yours.
