PointJS Game Engine - Make 2D Games in our IDE

PointJS IDE is an integrated development environment (IDE) for creating 2-2.5D games for browsers, computers and mobile devices using the PointJS game engine. The development environment facilitates the process of creating games by providing developers with a convenient interface and tools for working with game objects, sprite animation, graphics, sound, and other elements of the game. PointJS IDE also allows you to create and edit code, debug, render, test and export the game in various formats for hosting on websites and other platforms.

WILL I SUCCEED

I do not know the programming language.

Knowledge of the language is not necessary since you operate with ready-made commands. You only need to master the minimal javascript syntax. It is going to take you 15 minutes to learn the ropes. Thanks to the simple syntax, both adults and children can make games.

For instance, in order to draw an object on a scene, you use the command .draw(); and you can get the distance to the object with the getDistance() command;

I have a weak computer

It's even better. When creating a game, you will immediately test it for performance.

With a powerful computer, you may not notice various nuances, for example, extra game cycles. Then your game will slow down on other devices.

We have to make a game so that works for everyone!

I can't draw or make animation

And what for? You program a game. Now there are plenty of resources where you can take sprite animation, backgrounds, music, images and do it for free under the CCO license: opengameart.org / craftpix.net / itch.io

Or maybe you have a friend who draws well and is ready to join the game creation?

I believe that creative skills (composing music, drawing, writing poems) are given by nature. You cannot be able to do everything, but you can understand everything a little bit at a time. Delegate things in which you are not good at to professionals.

I trust everyone can program!

How much does it cost?

Now it can cost $40 or more to go to the movies with friends and have a snack at McDonald's.

We offer a monthly subscription of $9.99 which is less than $1 per day.

Think of what is more essetial to you: to have another hamburger every day or invest 30 cents in education, a profitable profession, or a hobby.

By the way, games can bring income. While your friends are living on their parents' money, you can already earn a living and can afford to travel. Now it is one of the most profitable professions which has overtaken the creation of cartoons and animation in terms of income

About the Author

Hi, I'm Alexander Ptichkin. For more than 10 years I have been teaching the creation of cartoons and animation in the Anime Studio Pro (Moho) program, as well as teaching the creation of computer games on my PointJS game engine. I founded the largest educational platfrom in Russia Mult-Uroki.ru, gathered millions of students around the world and programmed unique technologies of movement and interaction of characters in multiplayer games, reducing the load on servers.

I have my own effective teaching methods. After my courses, students easily enter higher schools, work by profession or get engaged in profitable freelancing.

I also conduct trainings and train teachers to deliver the material in an interesting way so that students look forward to the next lesson and run to it. There are no thoughts in their head like "Oh, here we go again" or "When is this class over?

OUR STORY

It all started in 2012 in a basement, where we (a group of enthusiasts) taught children creative professions: directing, filming, animation, photography, English, etc. And I also conducted master classes for children on creating cartoons in the technique of "computer rearrangement".

But not everyone could go to study. Slowly, the audience of students was decreasing, and in order to obtain more coverage, we switched to the Internet. I created a YouTube channel and started posting lessons that people all over the world could see. Now there are 900+ videos.

Later I created a website where people communicate, share their work and help each other. It turned out to be a full-fledged social network with a forum, personal messages, dialogs, a wall and a news feed. I called this project Mult-uroki.

FROM ANIMATION TO GAME CREATION

After 5 years of working in animation, I became interested in creating games, especially since the areas turned out to be closely related. My students often did not make cartoons, but sprites for games. By chance, I met a man who made an html5 game engine. Seeing the prospects for the development of this product, I bought it at the development stage. Back in school, I was programming in BASIC, so it was easy to learn javascript. I continued the development and named the game engine PointJS.

Since then, I have created physics, isometry, collisions with objects of any shape and their detours along the shortest path. I am currently combining the PointJS engine with websocket technology to create high-bandwidth multiplayer games.

We have also created the full-fledged PointJS IDE game development environment.
