● Runs in the browser — nothing to install

Make games in 3D and 2D, in one editor.

A full engine in a browser tab: scene, physics, animation, particles, terrain and UI, driven by a visual node graph or by real code. Press Play. Export to the web, the desktop, or a phone.

No install. No credit card. Your first game exports free.

Everything in one place

A whole engine, not a toy

Every part below is in the editor today — no plugins to find, no second tool to learn, and nothing that only works in the demo.

3D scenes

Meshes, materials, lights and shadows on Babylon.js. Import .glb and .fbx by dropping them in, with their clips and textures discovered for you.

2D, properly

Sprites, sheets, tilemaps imported from Tiled, and a paint editor. Flat projects get flat habits: front view, orthographic camera, bodies held in their plane.

Node graphs

96 nodes across events, flow, maths, transforms, physics, UI, audio and AI. Behaviour you can read across a room, and undo one step at a time.

Scripts

JavaScript in a Monaco editor that autocompletes against the engine's own declarations. Scripts and graphs call the same services, so an object can carry both.

Physics

Arcade collision for predictable platformers, or Havok for real rigid bodies and joints — hinge, ball, slider, spring. Same nodes either way.

Animation

A timeline with bezier curves and draggable handles, clips that cross-fade, and animation events that fire footsteps and hit frames on the exact frame.

Particles

Fire, smoke, sparks, magic, water, leaves and bursts as presets, tuned by eye while they run — and fired from a graph when something happens.

Audio

3D sound attached to objects with real falloff, a listener that rides the camera, and an audio editor for trimming what you import.

UI canvas

Menus, HUDs and score counters laid out on a visual stage that scales to any screen, with one-click bindings to the variables behind them.

Terrain & sky

Sculpt brushes, multi-layer texture painting, a scattering sky with a time-of-day control that moves the sun, the light and the god rays together.

Split screen

Up to four players on one screen. Objects have owners, so one graph copied onto two characters is already a two-player game.

Prefabs & scenes

Save a tree of objects, place it anywhere, and push a change to every instance. Multiple scenes, with objects that survive the switch.

A look inside

Real screenshots, taken from a running editor

Every picture here is captured automatically from the engine itself, so it cannot go stale.

Build it your way

A node graph, real code, or both on the same object

Drag out an event, wire it to what should happen, and watch it run. Or open the script editor and write it. They are two front ends onto one engine — the node that moves something and the line of code that moves something call the same method.

  • 96 nodes: events, flow, maths, transforms, physics, UI, audio, tweens, AI
  • Monaco editor with autocomplete built from the engine's own source
  • Every change is one undo step, whichever way you made it
  • Variables and messages are shared between graphs and scripts

3D and 2D

One editor that knows which kind of game you are making

2D is not a second engine bolted on. A sprite is ordinary geometry, so hierarchy, prefabs, colliders, outlines and physics worked on it the day it existed. Tell the project it is flat and the editor changes its habits to match.

  • Tilemaps from Tiled, drawn as one mesh per layer and painted in the editor
  • Sprite sheets cut once, named, and played by name — Aseprite exports read directly
  • Front view, orthographic camera, drops that land on the plane
  • Shapes clicked out in the viewport, and a paint editor for the one pixel that is wrong

Make the things you need

Assets and help, without leaving the editor

3D from a picture

Hand it a photo or a drawing and get a textured model back, downloaded straight into the project's folder. Paid for in credits, with the provider key on our server and never in your editor.

Images and music

Generate textures, sprites and backgrounds, or a piece of music for a level, and have them land in the project as assets you can use immediately.

An assistant that builds

Ask for a mechanic and it makes it — objects, components, graphs and scripts — by calling the same commands you do. A whole answer lands as one change, so one Ctrl+Z takes it all back.

MCP server

Claude, or anything that speaks the Model Context Protocol, can build in your running editor through the same tools. Each call is one undoable change, and you watch them arrive.

Asset explorer

Folders, previews, bulk edits, FBX import with a real converter on the desktop, audio trimming, and materials shared between any number of meshes.

Device preview

Frame the viewport to a phone or a tablet, turn it on its side, and force the on-screen thumbsticks in — so you find out how it feels before you build it.

Particles & animation

Tools that show you the answer while you change it

The particle editor runs the effect as you tune it. The timeline draws the real evaluator's curve, not a picture of one. Both are ordinary edits — Ctrl+Z works inside them like everywhere else.

Fourteen finished games, open to the last node

Templates are ordinary projects: open their graphs, change anything, save it as yours. They are also how the engine tests itself — every one of them is opened and played on every change we make.

The template gallery

2D Platformer

A whole side-scrolling level: run, jump, collect, and something that walks at you.

Third Person

A rigged character with cross-faded clips and an orbiting camera.

GBX Craft

A block world with character select and a soundtrack.

Kart Circuit

Three timed laps around an imported track, checkpoint by checkpoint.

Horror FPS

A dark building, a torch, and a battery that is running out.

Split-screen Co-op

Two players, two cameras, one keyboard — or a gamepad each.

Ship it

Six ways out of the editor

One game, six destinations. The runtime travels with it, and nothing points back at us.

Web (HTML5)

A folder any static host will serve — itch.io, Netlify, GitHub Pages, your own server.

Publish online

One click and your game is on the web at a link you can send, hosted by us.

Windows

An app with its own window, built from the project the editor writes for you.

macOS

The same, as a .dmg, built and signed on a Mac.

Linux

An AppImage that runs on any distribution without installing anything.

Android & iOS

A Capacitor project, ready for Android Studio or Xcode and the stores behind them.

Two ways to run it

In the browser, or installed on your machine

The same editor either way, and the same account. The desktop build adds the things a browser will not do: projects saved straight to disk, native file dialogs, a real FBX converter, and the MCP server.

Windows

An installer that puts GBX Engine in your Start menu, with .gbxproj files on disk.

Download for Windows Checking for a build…

macOS

A disk image with the editor inside, for Apple silicon and Intel.

Download for macOS Checking for a build…

Linux

An AppImage: make it executable, run it, and nothing else is installed.

The desktop builds are unsigned for now, so Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper will warn on the first run. On Windows choose More info → Run anyway; on macOS right-click the app and choose Open.

Credits pay for generated content — a 3D model, a picture, a track — and are sold in packs from $5. See the packs.

Open a tab. Make a game.

There is nothing to download and nothing to sign up for. The editor opens on an empty scene and a spinning cube, and everything on this page is already in it.
