Do I need to know how to code in order to make games with the Game Maker?
No, you do not need any knowledge of coding to make a game. The Game Maker was designed with a no-code approach in mind, However, we will be adding optional coding features in the future, so that those who do wish to make a game using a coding language can do so.
Put simply, the Game Maker is an easy-to-use program that allows you to build experiences. It provides a drag-and-drop interface, giving you the power to place different elements and objects into an environment, define how elements interact using inbuilt behaviors and mechanics, and then share your creations within The Sandbox's metaverse, all with no coding required! Using the Game Maker allows you to edit terrain, place characters, display items, organize buildings, and curate epic quests, all from a vast library of professional and community-developed resources.

So don’t let that stop you from taking your first steps into an exciting new world of creativity and potential. Whatever journey you are on, the aim of the Game Maker Academy is to help you get your bearings, equip you with knowledge and tools, and then help you to continue creating and exploring!
