GameGenix 1

GameGenix 1 is a 2D HTML-based game editor designed for creating simple platformer, maze, and top-down games directly in the browser. Its main goal is to let users design games quickly without writing complex code.

Key features of GameGenix 1 include:

1. Drag & Drop Object Placement

   • Users can add basic game elements such as Player, Enemy, and Block by dragging them from a toolbox into the scene.

   • Objects can be positioned anywhere in the 2D game area.

2. Color and Style Customization

   • Each object can have its color changed, allowing users to visually distinguish different elements.

3. Multi-Level Support

   • The editor allows users to design multiple levels, linking objects like doors to transition from one level to another.

4. Simple Physics & Collision Detection

   • The Player cannot pass through blocks.

   • Enemies can move toward the Player, and collisions with enemies trigger a “You Lost” message.

5. Music and Sound Effects

   • Users can either select pre-made background tracks or provide their own links to music and SFX.

   • Music can be changed dynamically without modifying the code.

   6, Save, Load, and Export

   • Users can save and load their game layouts.

   • Games can be exported as HTML files for direct play in browsers.

GameGenix 1 focuses on ease of use, making it possible for beginners and hobbyists to create 2D games quickly, while also providing the ability to adjust colors, sounds, and layouts without coding.

GameGenix 2

GameGenix 2 is a more advanced 2D HTML game editor, building on the foundation of GameGenix 1 but expanding the types of games that can be created. Unlike GameGenix 1, it specializes in different game genres, such as:

• Side-scrolling platformers

• Top-down shooters

• Racing or vehicular 2D games

Key differences and improvements in GameGenix 2:

1. More Game Styles

   • In addition to basic platformers, users can now create shooter-style games, including projectile mechanics like shooting bullets forward with mouse clicks.

2. Dynamic Player Interactions

   • The player can move with smoother physics, including shift-speed running and collision detection against multiple objects.

   • Enemies can interact dynamically with the Player, for example chasing or causing game-over conditions.

3. Customizable Audio

   • Users can provide a link to background music or use built-in placeholder tracks.

   • Audio can be changed dynamically when starting the game without editing the source code.

   4.Maintains Simplicity for Beginners

   • Despite added features like shooting, speed boost, and improved physics, GameGenix 2 retains a simple, visual editor interface, focusing on accessibility rather than complex programming.

Summary:

• GameGenix 1 = Simple 2D editor, platformers/mazes, basic drag-and-drop, colors, multi-level, simple physics.

• GameGenix 2 = Advanced 2D editor, supports multiple game genres (platformers, shooters, vehicles), dynamic player interactions, audio customization, and enhanced exporting.

Essentially, GameGenix 1 is for classic 2D game creation, while GameGenix 2 provides more flexibility and interactivity for creating diverse 2D HTML games without coding knowledge.
