Construct 3

Browser-based 2D game maker with event sheets instead of code

Construct 3 is a 2D game engine from Scirra that runs in the web browser and uses event sheets, a visual logic system, so games can be built without traditional programming, with optional JavaScript for advanced users. Games export to HTML5 and to desktop and mobile apps. It is used in schools and by hobbyists and indie developers, with a limited free edition and paid subscriptions for the full feature set.

Our take

Pros

  • Runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install
  • Event sheets let beginners build games without writing code
  • Exports to HTML5, desktop and mobile from one project

Cons

  • Built for 2D games, with minimal 3D capabilities
  • Free edition is limited and the full version is subscription-only
  • Large projects can become hard to organize with event sheets
