Enterbrain's next "maker"

[Valkysas]

http://tkool.jp/products/act/index.html

out 12/12/08, this new PC software is compatible with the 360's XNA platform. It isnt tied to just one genre, as you can see on the page.

no US release has been announced yet, but I'll keep everyone informed.

The game looks cool. I just wished I could read whats on the page. My computer doesn't have a translator for Japanese. Oh well.

Action Game Maker, 'EY?

Now that is interesting.

I wonder how it would stack up against Click and Create in terms of accessibility.

Here's a website with an english translation and a collection of all the released screenshots.

Action Game Maker

I'm 99% positive there'll be an english release (cmon it's XNA compatible and can be embedded in flash that screams US market) and if so it'll probably be released in late February/early March like VX was.

There's little information other than you can make a platformer, top down adventure game, and a shoot 'em up.

Re: Enterbrain's next "maker"

This looks pretty cool. Not everyone can work things like Game Maker so hopefully it'll simplify this stuff.

Here's my translation...which is better than the google one, but probably not 100% accurate. I'll have a Japanese person look it over later. =P

It’s here!
Rumors of a new maker have been released today.
Three things have been revealed about this new maker.

1. What can it do?

There is a construction tool let’s you make a gut-wrenching action game. So far there’s been nothing like this, this time you can make a platform game, action RPG, shooter and more using various action elements!

Left – Platform Game
Middle – Action RPG
Right – Shooter

2. Is it hard to make something?

A new game wizard meant for beginners is included with the game. You can adjust the genre, name, screen size, atmosphere, music and protagonist from a list of 6 items each and create a simple game. After that with a little adjustment, you can make your own original game.

Left – Even the editor is simple to use
Right – Just choose the item you want to create something

3. It’s a multi-platform game?

There is an option to run a finished game on more than just Windows. For example, you could make a flash game and post it on your blog, and then many people can play your game without even having to download it. What’s more, you can also use XNA Game Studio. What this means, is that people can play it on their Xbox 360 and more people than ever can see what you’ve made. Because there are many different platforms which can be used, the resolution of the game can also be modified.

If you want to use the Xbox 360 to show off your game, you have to be a part of the creator’s club.

Here’s an example of a high-def Xbox 360 game.

Expect more from us in the future about this product.
