Top Recommended Alternative

It's not exactly a WYSIWYG interface but it's pretty close as GameMaker allows you to select components such as default layouts, pictures and the format of your game from a simple to use GUI.However, although GameMaker doesn't require programming knowledge, it does allow programmers to enrich their games and you'll produce much better results if you have some basic skills.

GameMaker allows those that can't program to simply draw pictures, enter text and generally build your game from the bottom up. You only have a certain file limit within which to build your game which means that anything you create using GameMaker will be quite limited.

    • Easy to use GUI
    • Enter your own pictures and text
    • Allows you to add programming code if you want
