    Hi guys, I just want to post and show you what we have been working on not exactly a game, but falls under the world of gaming and I think you guys may enjoy it.
    It's an app called GamePress. GamePress let's you unleash your creativity and create the games of your imagination with no programming.
    We make it fun to create, share, and even play mobile games right on your iPad.



    Some features include:
    • Easy to use level editor so you can easily build your worlds and place objects
    • Behaviour editor which replaces programming. Works like a flowchart of actions and events
    • Complete physics engine (powered by Box2D)
    • Particle Editor so you can quickly whip up some awesome particles
    • Sound Effects creator so you can make some custom sound effects
    • Thousands of included art assets to get you started on making your games
    • Ability to import your own graphics, music, or sound effects
    • Special effects like shaders, and tweening.


    Stay updated by following us on twitter and facebook


    We'll also be holding a contest over Twitter and Facebook in the coming days, so follow us at www.twitter.com/gamepressapp and www.facebook.com/GamePressApp for your chance to win some great prizes


    Game Press is now officially available!
    Download it now

    Yes!
    Along with GamePress there will be the GamePress Arcade which your friends and family can use to play your creations.
    This will be a completely free stand alone app for people who just want to play games, and not make them.

    In the future we also hope to add functionality for you to sell your games. But we ant to keep the process simple, so still need develop a streamlined method for users :)

    Geovertex is quite different. Geovertex is a lot like the physics playground app creatorverse but with some game elements built in.

    With GamePress you're not just limited to what we give you.
    We have developed GamePress to be as powerful as desktop counterparts like GameSalad, game maker, and scirra construct2.

    We give full game development tools on the iPad, but make it easy:)

    Oh, when I mentioned those, it wasn't meant to put this game down. This looks very cool. Do you have an estimated price/release?

    I know your intentions were not to put this down. I was just stating the differences.

    We will be submitting to apple at the end of April. Pricing is still something were trying to determine. Hopefully will have something concrete in the coming weeks.

    I'm all in for this. So it's nearing the end of May, and when can we expect this to be out?

    Sorry for the delayed responses, we were just in the process of moving offices. Due to the move we're a little behind schedule but still very actively alive and developing GamePress to make it as easy to use as possible.

    We actually have done a small "test" release in the Canadian app store today. This is more to gather feedback and treated as an open beta test. It is up for $4.99.

    We are looking for beta testers in other markets, so if you are interested PM me your email and I will send out info to get you onboard as a private tester.


    As for RPGS, yes and no. You can technically make them but it will be a bit of a chore since the platform isn't optimized for them. The reason is we're currently focusing on making platform games and shooter games super easy. Once we're released and get user feedback we'll know where to focus next.
