Why Choose CodeWorks for No-Code Game Development?
CodeWorks is the ultimate visual scripting solution for anyone who wants to create games without coding. Whether you are a professional game developer, a student learning game design, or a complete beginner taking your first steps into game creation, CodeWorks makes game development accessible to everyone.
For Game Developers and Indie Creators
- Stop spending weeks learning complex programming languages. CodeWorks brings no-code game development to professional game engines like Godot, GameMaker, LÖVE2D, and GameGuru. Our drag-and-drop game maker approach lets you focus on what matters most: bringing your game ideas to life.
- Rapid Prototyping Made Simple Test your game concepts in minutes instead of days. The visual scripting interface allows you to build and iterate on game mechanics quickly. Create working prototypes without writing a single line of code, then export clean, optimized scripts ready for production.
- Cross-Engine Development Work across five different game engines using one familiar interface. Learn visual game programming once and apply your skills to Godot, GameMaker, LÖVE2D, GameGuru Classic, or GameGuru MAX. No need to master multiple scripting languages.
- Production-Ready Code Export CodeWorks generates native code for each engine. Your visual blocks become clean Lua, GDScript, or GML code that runs efficiently and can be further customized if needed. This is not just a learning tool; it is a professional game development solution.
- Eliminate Common Coding Errors Syntax errors, typos, and forgotten semicolons slow down development. With block-based game programming, these problems disappear. Every block is pre-tested and guaranteed to work, letting you build game logic without debugging frustration.
For Students and Learners
- CodeWorks is the perfect entry point for anyone who wants to learn game development without the steep learning curve of traditional programming. Our visual programming for games approach teaches real game development concepts through an intuitive, beginner-friendly interface.
- Learn Game Development the Easy Way Traditional coding can be intimidating. CodeWorks removes that barrier with sentence-based visual scripting that reads like plain English. Understand what each block does instantly, connect them logically, and watch your game come to life. This is how to make games without coding experience.
- Build Real Games for Real Engines Unlike simplified educational tools, CodeWorks teaches you to build games for industry-standard engines. The skills you learn transfer directly to professional game development. Start with visual scripting, understand the logic, then transition to traditional coding when you are ready.
- Understand Programming Concepts Visually Variables, loops, conditions, and functions can be confusing as text. CodeWorks presents these programming fundamentals as visual blocks with clear descriptions. See how game logic flows, understand cause and effect, and develop computational thinking skills naturally.
- Portfolio-Ready Projects Create games you can actually share and publish. CodeWorks is not a toy; it is a complete game development environment. Build projects that demonstrate your skills to schools, employers, or the gaming community.
For Educators and Teachers
- Bring game-based learning to your classroom with a visual scripting tool designed for education. CodeWorks makes teaching game design and programming concepts engaging and accessible for students of all ages.
- Teach Without Technical Barriers You do not need to be a programming expert to teach game development. The no-code game engine approach lets educators focus on design principles, logic, and creativity rather than syntax and debugging.
- Engage Students with Interactive Learning Game development captures student attention like few other subjects. CodeWorks transforms abstract programming concepts into tangible, playable results. Students see immediate outcomes from their work, keeping them motivated and invested.
- Support Multiple Skill Levels From elementary students to university learners, CodeWorks scales with your curriculum. Young learners can create simple games with basic blocks, while advanced students can explore complex game mechanics and AI programming.
- Prepare Students for Industry Tools CodeWorks supports Godot and GameMaker, two of the most widely used engines in indie game development and game design education. Students learn workflows and concepts that apply directly to professional game creation.
For Hobbyists and Creative Minds
- You have game ideas. CodeWorks helps you build them. Our beginner game development platform removes every technical obstacle between your imagination and a playable game.
- No Programming Background Required Forget everything you have heard about game development being difficult. With CodeWorks visual game programming, if you can drag, drop, and read simple sentences, you can make games. It really is that simple.
- Turn Ideas into Playable Games That game concept you have been thinking about for years? Build it this weekend. CodeWorks gives you thousands of pre-built behavior blocks covering movement, combat, inventory systems, AI behaviors, physics, sound, and more. Combine them to create exactly the game you envision.
- Join a Creative Community Share your custom blocks with other creators and download community-made behavior scripts. Learn from others, contribute your innovations, and become part of a growing community of visual scripting game developers.
- Publish Your Creations CodeWorks is not just for prototypes. Build complete games and publish them to the platforms supported by your chosen engine. Your no-code game can reach real players on PC, mobile, and web.
- The Future of Game Development is Visual
- The game industry is evolving. No-code and low-code tools are no longer just for beginners; they are becoming essential for rapid development, prototyping, and accessible game creation. CodeWorks puts you at the forefront of this shift with professional-grade visual scripting for multiple game engines.

I think there'd be quite a few people in the CopperCube community that could be interested in a CopperCube version of this. Also... your price point feels way too high. Sorry.
I saw on the forums it said it supported it, do I just not understand what the forums were saying or does it support it
this looks like a very promising IDE, however I would definitely buy it if it has support for Defold or LÖVE
Hi, is the Defold support added? If so, that is really cool!
small question, will there ever be any discounts at some point? I want to support the framework, but the worth of dollar where I live sky rocketed. So will there ever be one? ^^
Would be cool to get a Godot Engine version of this.
:)
ITS IN WORKS MAN... AFTER COVID LIFE IS DIFFICULT...HAVE TO JUGGLE THROUGH 3 JOBS...
could definitely see myself buying this if it got godot support
Just checking back in to see if there's any news on the Defold support?
its was going well with backend being ready but from past 1 month my system is screwed & is under repair .. ☹️
Hey there I was wondering if this would work for godot?
and say VR game dev
i think i'd already replied on youtube comments...where u'd posted same question...
How much is this going to cost?
29.99 USD (varies from country to country pricing on steam ) for GameGuru Classic + GameGuru Max
if you are not in good financial state, then email me. I'll send you free steam key..
cool I'll send you a email
what's your email?
ankrai.gameworks@gmail.com
I really want a copy. My money is extremely tight. In spite of that, I feel your pain because you work three or more jobs. Then you’re updating to stay on top of this amazing software. You’re very inspirational. To reach me; djsroom@comcast.net or my website: solo.to/afriendlycow
I just saw this get posted to Steam. Congratulations!
However, I saw that it is only listed for GameGuru. Has the other engine support been dropped? I had been really wanting this for Defold and Love.
Hi,
addition of Defold & love api are finished but i find that without level editor its not usefull to beginners. Am working on visual level editor as part of codeworks... It will be out soon as complete solution. Just give me sometime. I'll have something extremely cool to show.
Thankyou
Thanks for the reply. Excited to see your work with Defold and others!
Hmmm, just looked on Steam and there's nothing there. Is this project no longer in development? It seems really interesting. Has anyone out there tried this at all?
am done with development of codeworks .. have uploaded it on steam will be out soon in 30-60 days. thank you for your interest
Congratulations! I look forward to it.
Hello, is this going to be released this year? Looks interesting.
Thanks
Hi, it will out in steam within 30-60 days ... will post news here on itch... thank you for your interest. Take care
will this also support godot and for VR??
Just checking on on this again. Any progress towards a release date?
finished with the development & testing will be out on steam in 30-60 days. thank you for your interest. Take care
I saw that there was a post a few months ago stating there was an expected Steam release soon, so I wanted to check back in on this. Any new timeline on release?
I see you have Love2D listed, which is Lua based. Please consider support for Defold as well since it is also Lua based. Very excitedly watching this for Godot/Love2D (hopefully eventually Defold :D )
Just at finishing stage for Defold support....
That's amazing! Thanks for the update.
Can't wait for this to be released. Excited for it to be available via steam or other methods.
yes
Plis give link to steam I mast download this I like !!!
extremely sorry for delayed reply...its under development for other game engines.... will be releasing it soon on steam....
Meanwhile you can have a look at my other game dev tools:

Thank you for understanding...
Ok thanks and I waiting on this Really like this!
How close are we to release this software?
Due to Pandemic I'm undertaking few government projects ...most likely codeworks will be out in 3 months..
i need CodeWorks :)
soon...
i wait :)
How to download
this software is up for release on steam on next month... kindly wait for a month...steam link will be posted on release....
Hi Ankrai,
Any news of CodeWorks for Steam? You are probably busy with your modeling software.
Anyway, keep up the excellent work.
Cheers.
Hi,
codeworks final version will be on steam on or around April-May end....
Awesome...Can hardly wait. Cheers.
Hi,
i don't have answer of all that.... but i have updated the software to be available for free until release...(GG only)
Hi Ankrai,
Has support for CodeWorks stopped. It's giving me the "License Expired" message.
Cheers.
Hi,
The feature support for most of the engine is complete and its headed for steam release. Since, you backed it up...you will get its key on your email id upon its release.
However, if you are using it on daily basis or you have some ongoing project on it..then i will make some makeshift arrangement ...let me know...?
Hi, thank you for the reply. No need for a makeshift version. If it will soon come out on Steam, I can perfectly wait. Keep up the excellent work.
have updated...try re downloading...
Hi Ankrai, I backed this on IndieGoGo and, up until today, I could download the software...However, this is no longer on my Itch.io library. Do I have to buy the sofware again? Thanks.
No... Just refresh it again... or re add... if it still didn't work let me know..
Working. Thank you and keep up the excellent work.
Hi ANKRAI Gameworks, I have download your app but I can only select the GameGuru engine, why?
Other Game Engines are in testing stages and are available to select few. Thankyou for your interest. I am nearing towards the release of final build ... Soon it will be accessible to the general public...
Thanks. :)
Great to hear this isn't totally dead. Looking forward to future news. :)
No, it ain't and was never dead... its just the silence before the storm... will come back with a bang!!... ;)
Not loaded, black screen !!!
Sorry, I'm very sorry that the project is no longer supported.
This was a super idea, because there are a lot of users (creative people) who don’t like and don’t want to program, they just want to play games, like an artist draws with a brush. We need this program. Just about this program, no one knows, you need to promote and promote it. Barter on the card now has no money, but they will, I will help as I can.
You had to be patient and go to the end, who diligently goes to the end, God arouses him, this will be confirmed by any rich person who has achieved everything and has not received his wealth from ancestors.
download the new executable and make sure your are connected to the internet .. give it a few seconds to load ..followed up by logo it will take you to the main application. If it still didn't work then kindly reply with your system configuration.
"Sorry, I'm very sorry that the project is no longer supported."
Project is actively supported... and is currently in development. Its just that I stopped posting about it.
Thank you for your kind and wise words. 2 more months I will share something cool.
Super, I am very glad, we will wait for good news from you!
Hello :-) ,
I have not opened the tool is a long while and I just did. Here is what I got: A blank page with the message (inside the software) : File not found.
Am I doing something wrong?
EDIT: I uninstalled and re-installed the software . Now it still a blank page but it says : licence expired !
check now! .... strange...after everything what you mentioned on steam ..surprising that you r using it!!!
<<check now!>>
I just did. It's full blanck ...
<<strange...after everything what you mentioned on steam ..surprising that you r using it!!!>>
Smile, what's strange about that? Every now and then, one can simply open a software or a game he/she own to check it out. There is nothing bad or strange about doing such a thing my friend. I simply wanted to see how your work was going. :-) .
EDIT : it opened now. Looks pretty ^_^
Hello, happy to see that there was a fix for the offline issue. I just re-downloaded the file and now I notice that the only available option is the Game Guru, one. I can't seem to select any of the others. Also... I don't see a button for the S2 Engine or CopperCube. Looking forward to trying this out.
Only people that contributed to the Indiegogo campaign were from GG community. Yesterday itself I'd released full block library for GG. As the campaign is almost ended..or I say it is living on fume for few more hours ...Since, I haven't received any support from other communities hence am not obliged to add support for there game engine... I'm not keen on S2 now...as the developer has already abandoned the product and CC6 is not financially viable...
Currently testing AppGameKit...
Godot and Unity C# is next in line...
Sorry to disappoint you..Hope you'll understand my state...However, the final steam version will include my own 3d drag and drop game engine...way better than buildbox 3... check back later if it interest you...
No worries. Interesting... didn't know about S2 being abandoned. I thought there was a big update coming soon. Ha... thats just the way things go in this world. Anyway, good luck with keeping this going. Looks great.
Ha! Update... Been waiting for it since 9 months.... forum moderators keep saying its coming..its coming ..(might be better than Paul Revere ! ). Even those moderators are not able to establish contact with him.Myself tried to contact Fabio (S2 dev) multiple times but never received a single reply. The problem is he need to complete the documentation then only I could add its support in CodeWorks. In its current state documentation is missing a lot of API references. Personally, i want that engine to achieve success but might be due to negativity he might have left...
Wow.. sorry for not seeing this 86 days ago. lol
Good news is that there is in fact a new version of S2 Engine HD. I have it, and it's feeling pretty good. I think the user base is still small, but there youtube videos that keep coming out. I too hope for some more exposure and success for this engine. Right now my biggest wish is that I had more time to muck around in it. Really busy with work and family these days. :(
This is looking pretty sweet. More videos would be great. Maybe showing some basic usage for some other engines? S2, Godot, CopperCube. Can never go wrong with more videos, I say.
:)
Thanks for checking back...busy finishing the project ...will release it soon...
