GDevelop 사용 후기 및 리뷰

Review by an Gdevelop user for over past 4 years.

주석: My overall experience using Gdevelop over the past four years has been exciting. I have seen the engine grow before my eyes through updates, and they are constantly working to improve it. The community and popularity of Gdevelop have grown significantly, and as these two factors rise, so does the user base. This gives me hope for the future of Gdevelop because I am confident that in a few years, their 3D capabilities will get better, and Gdevelop will be able to compete with top engines.

장점:

I like the ease of use of managing the scenes, editing animations, adding new characters, and, most importantly, how convenient it is for us to change or add game events It is literally the best 2D game engine out there in the market and that too is so cheap. These are the major pros I like about Gdevelop.

단점:

The things I don't like about Gdevelop can be counted on you fingers but their impact is huge if you see from a Game developer POV. for example the lack of 3D features I know it's new but it can be faster, secondly I think pricing while publishing or exporting your game can be little less. These are the cons I feel about Gdevelop.

The best No-Code engine and it's not even close

장점:

GDevelop is a No-Code engine, but still feels like a coding engine, and I mean that in the best way possible. Unlike other visual coding engines, it doesn't overcomplicate things by having the code displayed in trees or graphs; it just has all the code as a list from top to bottom like in standard coding. I have been working on two commercial games in GDevelop that have totally different genres and every single feature I wanted to implement was possible; after two years I still have to find the limits to this software (expect for the one point mentioned in my Cons section).

단점:

By far my biggest gripe with GDevelop is its lack of console support. Games developed in C#-based engines can be ported to consoles like the Nintendo Switch or the Ps4/5 more easily, but since GDevelop is based on Javascript, the process of porting the game to consoles is very convoluted and hard.

I liked it when they were 2d focussed

주석: Just a bummer, helper [sensitive content hidden] being the face of literally everything doesn't help, might as well call it [sensitive content hidden]develop

장점:

The reason I picked it over Godot was because it seemed like it was doing a good job caring about 2D,

단점:

but it seems they've swapped all their attention to 3D which honestly seems pretty dumb given the target demo was I thought supposed to be individuals or small teams.

Redefining Game Development Education for Next Generation.

주석: GDevelop has transformed our game development curriculum by making it easy for students from all backgrounds to get started. Its user-friendly interface speeds up learning, letting us concentrate more on game design concepts than on complex coding details.

장점:

GDevelop's visual programming interface is great for student with little coding experience, offering an easier introduction to game design. The platform's ability to work across different devices also helps students develop versatile skills by creating games for various platforms.

단점:

There is a risk that users could become too dependent on GDevelop's workflow, which might limit their availability to adapt to other popular game engines in industry.

3 Commercial Games Shipped on Steam

주석: I created and shipped 3 fully developed indie games with GDevelop over the course of 7 years, to critical aclaim by fans. I couldn't have done that with any other engine. Gdevelop made it possible to develop the second game (Red-Tether) in only 7 months, shipping 2000+ units and reaching 98% favorable reviews. Overall the engine is extremely efficient and well suited to make professional 2d games in short timeframes.

장점:

Very fast development cycle, easy to use, lots of tutorials and explanations on the wiki. The no code aspect is developed the the fullest, in contrast to other engines I tried. GDevelop actually does allow you to make full comercial games without actual programming.

단점:

My main grope with GDevelop is that version 4 is unfortunately is no longer supported, eventually preventing me from updating my existing games made in that version. In some regards it also feels like a superior version in terms of usability. GDevelop 5 is slower than 4 in some regards and at times it feels like using a badly optimized website instead of a desctop app. It struggles when project get to substantial sizes. This causes things like massive delays to simple tasks like opening variable list, failing to load event sheets in their entirety or scrolling to random events when using cntrl+z. Loading external data through xml was more flexible in GDevelop 4 and some aspect of the animation viewer where more streamlined.

Gdevelop review after using it for 2 years

주석: Overall, I think the game engine is pretty good. Of course, there is always room for improvement, but even at its current state, gdevelop is a masterpiece, and providing it for free is an incredible feat. Just keep adding new features and updating, and you will be motivated to work even harder to improve it, knowing that your software is loved by so many.

장점:

Pros: If I have to summarize my whole game development journey, the pros I felt were Gdevelop being free and open source compared to all other no-code game engines. No one on the market is as good as Gdevelop, plus it is no-code, which makes it way less complicated, and its drag-and-drop nature makes it a perfect go-to engine for your 2D game.

단점:

Cons: The things I dislike about Gdevelop are as follows: first, their pricing. Recently, while I understand that they rely on donations and subscriptions to support their business model, the issue is that it is no longer very affordable. The increase in subscription prices is very noticeable. I hope you guys work on it. Secondly, I dislike Gdevelop's 3D compatibility. 3D still lacks many basic features, but I also understand that it is a 2D engine after all, and 3D is very new for them too.

A perfect entry to game development for anyone

주석: I have had a blast using it and would recommend it to anyone. I've created a large number of prototypes and using GDevelop has even encouraged me to get into 3D art again as I have the time to work on the art now it doesn't take me hours to make a game in other engines!

장점:

The ability to cloud save is amazing. It allows me to develop on my PC or Mac or even phone/tablet without having to worry about GitHub or similar online saving. An in built art creation and editing tool is great to have and Piskel, built into GDevelop, is an amazing tool. Such a powerful tool. A simple ability to add new objects as assets either provided on the GDevelop Asset Store or my own assets is easy to use and clear to integrate. Adding new conditions and events make a lot of sense, and everything is contextual which means debugging is usually only required to ensure everything is happening in the right order. You can put together a prototype that you can expand upon in no time at all.

단점:

I wish there were more in built tutorials on some of the more difficult aspects - especially 3D. I understand 3D is new but creating 3D FPS or 3rd Person Controllers would be an amazing addition.

Gdevelop is amazing

주석: Overall it is great, I love it. And the build service is also really great they let us build on servers, 2 builds a day free thats awesome.

장점:

I have been uisng it for quite a while at first I only used it in game jams but now I am using it in a project and it is a great experience really love it.

단점:

It is a little hard to manage your game as it scales, if you are unaware of some tips and tricks.

Best no code game engine

주석: Amazing. I always enjoy to test ideas in this engine and work on very interesting prototypes. Almost every game idea that I had can be complete develop in this engine. It's easy and powerful.

장점:

No code easy workflows. You can have a working prototype very quickly. It's easy to understand. It's intuitive. There are a good amount of people helping each other in the web. Mostly all of my questions have been answered in the web (social forums)

단점:

The only downside I have encounter is the lack of complex design objects. For example, creating a card game it's hard since I did not found a way to create a "Card object" that is composed of text and graphic independent elements that I could interact, and at the same time be part of a single card. Like prefab on unity or object nodes in godot.

An engine that brought me back into Game Development!

장점:

I really enjoy how much the community is able to contribute to the growth and features of this game engine and the ease of use is well above all others.

단점:

I feel that this engine is still in its infancy when it comes to quality of life and interface features.

An In-depth Review of GDevelop: A Powerful and Intuitive Game Development Platform

주석: GDevelop is an open-source game development platform that provides users with a comprehensive set of tools to quickly and easily create highly polished 2D games. It offers a comprehensive set of tools for designing and developing 2D games, ranging from a visual editor for creating and editing game levels, to a powerful scripting language for customizing game mechanics. GDevelop also offers a wide range of built-in features for creating various types of games, such as arcade and platformers.

장점:

The key positive aspect of GDevelop is its user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to get started with game development. Even novice developers can quickly become comfortable with the platform, as the interface is intuitive and straightforward. GDevelop also provides a range of tutorials to help users learn how to use the platform, as well as a large community of developers who are willing to share their knowledge and offer advice and support.

단점:

The main negative aspect of GDevelop is that it is not as powerful as some of its competitors. While it can be used to create basic 2D games, it lacks the advanced features of more powerful platforms, such as Unity or Unreal Engine. This can limit the scope of the platform.

I love GDevelop

주석: I was using unreal and it was a mess with all the stuff that I didnt need loading...I got nothing done but with GD I could... It really is a great NDE and I am excited about the future and the 3d development.

장점:

It's really great, I can't believe I only recently heard of it. I love that I can create the game and development that I want with a wonderful no code system. It blows me away with all the features. Very great.

단점:

It sucks that there is no deployment for Iphone, very disappointing. Also there seems to be less love for the mac as I have notices a bunch of "not working" aspects for mac computers, which blows. Also, there are so many features that I find it very hard to discover how to use them all... maybe the coding part could get some type of visual rework for the UI.

GDevelop Review - Best game engine for quick development!

주석: Overall I love GDevelop and will continue to work with it.

장점:

I love the ability to write JS blocks and have them link to the code Blocks in the main game.

단점:

I wish I could choose the ability to compile my games on the desktop and not on the cloud.

The PERFECT 2D game engine.

주석: GDevelop has accelerated my game development journey tenfold, and I truly believe that is the case with even the most knowledgeable developers.

장점:

GDevelop is a great 2D game engine, and its only limited by the developer's imagination. The community is extremely helpful, and the community extensions are unbelievably good!

단점:

The editor for 3D games is not quite there yet, and is just an extension of the 2D editor. It also does not include common things like character controllers and collision.

Best no-code platform I've ever used

주석: Amazing. I will never go back to another platform after discovering GDevelop. I may actually be able to finish the game I've been dreaming about for years.

장점:

It was ridiculously, and I truly mean that, to pick up and start creating with GDevelop. I have no idea how I haven't discovered this tool sooner after trying (and failing) to get any momentum with Unity, Godot, Game Salad, and others.This is hands down the easiest, most intuitive, and quickest toolset I have ever used for game creation. I was blown away when I picked up GDevelop for the first time and created a simple physics game in less than 30 minutes, and that is with learning the platform from scratch.

단점:

It can be easy to quickly get lost in the logic branches, but that's simple to avoid with some planning and use of groupings and comments. It becomes habit quickly to keep things organized.

GDevelop: Why it is the Best Tool for Creatives

주석: Overall, I have had a very positive experience using GDevelop. I use it mainly to bring my inspirations to life, and it has been more than adequate in doing so. I work primarily in trying to make fun educational games, and it has been a very easy, consistent platform to bring my creations to life in a satisfying way.

장점:

For creative people, I like that GDevelop provides an instant platform to translate your creativity into a truly interactive media for your audience to enjoy. Besides games, you can create interactive notebooks, educational material, a digital journal, the list goes on and on. The ease of use of the block code makes it very easy to build your scenes, the bountiful tutorials help to see how things work, and the forum community is very active and eager to assist in a friendly and helpful way. It is an amazing tool to work with!

단점:

So far, the only cons I have found in my use of GDevelop are two things. One, I greatly wish that the window size/position would be remembered upon launch of the app. GDevelop always launches full screen, and it would be awesome if it would just launch to last window size/position. Second, I do wish there was a better way of implementing tweens at times. It does seem like there is a bit of tiresome code that needs to be implemented for a tween sequence to work. This may just be the way tweens are, but it is a bit tedious. I bit better official documentation would also be helpful.

Why G-Develop?

주석: G-Develop is amazing, I have recommended it to many people at my college, I show up to expos to show off my stuff and people always ask what program I made it in. G-Develop team, thank you for your work!

장점:

Usually with other engines, they grant you powerful tools, but what's the use of a powerful tool if you don't know how to use it? I feel as if this is G-Develop's biggest strength, providing you with understandable code without watering down code's potential and flexibility.

단점:

What I like least about G-Develop is the lagginess- though, most of the time, it's on the user's end to optimize the game to the upmost ability, and it also depends on hardware.

My GDevelop Review - VCD

장점:

Some of GDevelop's features that I liked the most were the behaviors, and the extensions, especially the extensions.It was a great way to utilize the power of the community, and was also a good way to add a form of helping hand to every single person using GDevelop. And the best part about it, it's free and super easy to set up/customize.

단점:

Navigating the scenes as well as the list of objects in the editor are the two things I like the least about GDevelop.As someone who's making a metroidvania that will inevitably have lots of scenes as well as lots of objects, it can be very inconvenient to have to scroll through dozens of scenes when they could have been neatly placed in unique folders.The same thing can be said for the objects in the editor, giving the objects a tag can be a chore especially when the objects are plenty, which is why being able to place them in folders would have been a huge relief to that.

GDevelop: The Top choice for No-Code engines.

주석: Overrall, GDevelop is a joy of an engine. It's precisely and tailor made to allow the dream of game development for anyone and everyone, without needing to pay for runtime fees, abusive subscriptions, expensive licence purchases or reliance on studio contracts. It is a much needed game engine for the market, and provides exactly what Construct 3 does for free.

장점:

+The No-code nature of the engine and the free price allows ANYONE of any background and experience to quickly get started and make any games +The Built in Sprite, Sound and DIalogue editors allow for all work to be done within the engine itself, without the need of 5 other software +It is really light to download and install, allowing it to run in a wide variety of computers +It has an android port, allowing game development on the go, anywhere. +It has a wide variety of pre-coded physics tools, controller schemes and character types. +It's very easy to set up a prototype to test an idea +It's very easy to organize your events and which condition does what.

단점:

-3D Support is unfortunately very weak, and many other engines are better suited for it. -It can be difficult to organize your objects and groups -Very unknown engine, meaning that tutorials can be hard to find for more niche types of games

An easy to use engine for building mobile app games.

주석: GDevelop allows us to become creative in building games. It helps us to come up with very futuristic yet easy to use apps for our clients.

장점:

Being an open-source platform, GDevelop offers flexibility when creating games making it possible for us to come up with very unique and futuristic games for our clients. It is so easy to use, has an intuitive user interface and no coding is needed. The amazing part of using GDevelop is all the games we create are compatible on all devices and platforms.

단점:

The experience I have with GDevelop is so perfect and i have nothing i hate about it.

Gdevelop enthusiast

장점:

We can starting develop at first day, learn and instant use.

단점:

Team work, it is hard to manager. Need a better way to work as a team.

Keep it simple

주석: Some design platforms are a little too simple, and others are a bit too complicated, but GDevelop sits right in the middle. Plus you can keep it super simple, or use Javascript and other options to get about as complicated as you need to.

장점:

I liked having a more visual setup. I was disappointed in the industry wide discontinuation of programs like VisualBasic, the real one, not Visual Studio. If I want to add a button in a program, I would like to drag and drop it where I like it, pick the colors the size etc. which is tedious in code. GDevelop does this with game design, you get a pretty good idea of what your finished product will be, before you compile it.

단점:

The 3d aspects are a little limited, but GDevelop isn't a 3D platform to begin with. If you are pretty 3D modeling, animating etc savy, you can make it work quite nicely though.

The power of GDevelop

주석: A simply amazing program. It has provided me with a bunch of new experiences and has even helped me financially. I have used it to offer my developing skills to numerous clients on Fiverr. I also used it for a few school and academy projects. I am very glad this kind of tool is avaliable for everyone and it's avaliable to everyone.

장점:

The fact that it's entirely a no-code game engine and it allows to effectively create any 2D game. Incredibly powerful app.

단점:

The fact that a some of its features are implemented on the surface level and there's really no room to create something unique. A great example of that would be the 2D effects. I personally have not used other game engines, but they for sure allow manual pixel manipulation, so cool effects are created and the developer has so much freedom in that case. In GDevelop, certain effects are presented to you, and that's the end of the story.

Best Game Development Software

장점:

I like most about Gdevelop is user friendly, easy to navigate, its free use and as well open source, also its easy to use animation features, also the compiling of the project and just a click no coding required you can build a complete game

단점:

I hope they can increase the limits of building packages or project compiling in a day :)

Gdevelop as a new way of making 3D games

주석: I really enjoyed my time learning Gdevelop, I created custom lightning 2D technique that I use for interactive experiences and stories. I would like to do more 3D games with this engine in the future.

장점:

Gdevelop combines what I like about making games the most: fast prototyping and easy to understand engine.

단점:

A lack of 3D viewport and a limit of daily game bulids.
