They&#8217;re programs that help you make games without having to code everything.  Stencyl a really simplified programming system that non-programmers might like.  I can program, so I like Unity more.","spam":"N"},{"author_name":"","time":"October 18, 2014 10:58 am","epoch":1413647880,"text":"Haha. You really have just started out, eh? Your question is just funny because the answer is extremely broad. There are tons of ways to make a game. Personally, I use L\u00d6VE, but other people use Game Maker, HTML5, Flash, Unity, C++, Haxe, Construct 2, Python, Twine, Stencyl, the list goes on. Try googling around to find what works for you.","spam":"N"},{"author_name":"Geckoo1337","time":"October 19, 2014 11:09 am","epoch":1413734940,"text":"Whoa! You are amazing. You got the desire to create something and it&#8217;s great, but in fact you need more. Ordinary when we have created our games, we used an engine like Unity or Stencil &#8211; a application in order to link the graphic layer with the code. And for to develop, is needed many many wasted time in order to get the fabulous skill. My friend I recommend to you start with the basics, and if you accept the rules, try to do something using your fire inside you &#8211; the passion. Good luck for the next LD ++","spam":"N"},{"author_name":"MrPoshman","time":"November 4, 2014 5:41 am","epoch":1415097660,"text":"Thanks.
