I had trouble, however, following along with the terminology. Using their step-by-step guide, I was able to find everything they mentioned. Beyond here, though, I got more than a little lost.įirst, I followed the handy green bar to the “Crash Course” and attempted to become familiar with the program via the tutorial. There are also some sample games to try out before you get started building your own. They seem to be pretty good about responding to comments and questions, too. It is also where the support area is found. There is a handy green bar (not pictured) at the bottom of the first screen that links to the Stencylpedia, where a “Crash Course” is available before you get started. Getting into the program is pretty easy, too.

The install was very simple (as are most, I’m noticing, on the MacBook Pro). There are a variety of Pro additions, too, available for a fee (with discounts for students), but as I am experimenting, I’m sticking with the free download. Stencyl 2.0 is a free program, available for Windows and Mac. I am one of those people, so I decided to take it for a test drive.

It’s a game that allows for an easier way of building iOS and Flash Games – one for people who don’t code. Instead, what I found was even more intriguing. I’ve been looking for something that I can use to make awesome info-graphics (with less of a learning curve than the Adobe tools that I have at my disposal).

I thought it would something related to art or drawing. The first app listed that really caught my attention and held it was one called Stencyl. When I went looking for a new tool to write about for thi assignment, I turned to Go2Web20.
