Make HTML5 Games - No Programming Required
Construct 2 is the follow up from Scirra's Construct Classic which has had around 500,000 downloads to date. Construct 2 allows people to make game in an intuitive and visual way. Scirra's ambition is to make Construct 2 better, more stable and more powerful than Construct Classic. Construct 2 is based on years of experience developing Construct Classic.
Export to HTML5
Construct 2 initially only exports to HTML5, but more export formats are going to be supported in the future such as EXE and possibly native mobile applications. Construct 2 is mainly for 2D game development. It aims to open the doors of game making to everyone by presenting making games in a visual and intuitive way.
HTML5 Demos
Scirra has released a couple of fully playable and functional HTML5 demos. The project files for these demos can also be downloaded and experimented with.
Construct 2 Versions
There are currently three versions of Construct 2, the free edition, the standard early adopter and the business early adopter. The free version comes bundled with free music, sound effects, ambient sounds and animated sprites. The paid editions release a few restrictions the free version places and also come with far more resources to use in your games.
Learning Resources
Scirra's website has lots of tutorials and their forum is very active.

Finally, 2021 is here, marking the 5th year of Round Rotate! If you have played this game or at least heard of it or played the prototype demo I uploaded here 2 years before the game actually got released, then it's much appreciated! Otherwise, here are the plans.
Round Rotate 2
Well, some of you may have been requesting Smitty's Journey 2 instead (especially that guy in my Discord server). But Smitty's Journey just got released less than a year ago, I don't want to make sequels way too soon. But hey, maybe I can work on Smitty 2 later after finishing this game?
Round Rotate, however, was first released for almost half a decade ago, with updates coming almost annually. So in my opinion, this game (soon to be a series) should be given even more attention.
I have been wanting to make Round Rotate as unique as possible, not just making it a weird clone to a game that not a lot knows (Innoquous), which this game took inspiration from in the first place. Also, the stage rotating concept will also be different in the sequel.
Round Rotate - Version 1.5.0
Yeah, this one was already released, but apparently not a lot are paying attention to it, so I'm gonna recap everything here.
Dubbed as the "final update" before Round Rotate 2 shines in, this update doesn't give much stuffs, some UI changes however. This update also marks the end of the exclusivity on Game Jolt and it's now released on itch.io and Kartridge! (should've do this in the first place)
Recolored Main Menu icons
BEFORE
AFTER
They look better, no? And of course, you may be curious about the the missing cursor icon and the newly added SONAR logo icon and the Discord icon?
Well, see below changes.
Game Jolt features removed in the non-GJ versions
Yes, the non-Game Jolt releases will have the features that rely on Game Jolt's technology omitted. Cloud save and trophies, all gone.
The Game Jolt menu item in the main menu was also replaced with the link to my Discord server.
Removed the Links (prev. Get Online) screen
Well, that screen serves no use in my opinion, I have no idea why I put the screen there. Now it's gone and the menu item got replaced with the SONAR logo, linking to SONAR's website of course.
Discord-exclusive events
Yes, these events are exclusive to those that joined my Discord server, right here. If you haven't, consider joining!
Round Rotate 5th Anniversary Community Fan-Art Pot!
Ha! Of course, this celebration needs to be celebrated with a fan-art pot! If you want to show your creative liberties by drawing some fan-arts, then this will be the right event for you! Starting date will be announced soon and a specific channel will be created!
I made this event just for fun though, but you also can have fun.
Round Rotate Throwback Picks
Any stages from Round Rotate 1 you wish to return in Round Rotate 2? Show your favorite stages (max. three stages per person) in the new channel I will be creating soon, with further information upcoming through an announcement of course.
Conclusion
I guess that's all for the plans. I really hope things will go well during the development of Round Rotate 2, and hopefully you guys keep supporting the development, a few feedbacks will do of course.
And with that, happy anniversary, Round Rotate! The actual anniversary is on August 20th, of course!

Hello All.
Somebody should update the "Platforms" supported by the engine.
I add a game in SlideDB and the was no construct 2 option because there no Android support for it.
Please update :)
Simply the best.
What does it mean when it says it only exports in HTML5?
Easy and powerfull for 2D games creation !
(buried)
This engine is really awful, its need to bundle freaking whole Chromiun engine to run primitive game
I love this engine!, is very fast for created game!
it look easier than mmf2 xDDD
Okay, ever since the little trail that resulted from my first comment -- I take no issue with Construct 2, it just sort of came out of nowhere (at least for me). I hope you guys succeed with it, and maybe even manage to get within the realm of 3D games.
I'm still going to be using Construct Classic, but I wish you guys all the best.
Correct me if I'm wrong -- but wasn't Construct made to be an open source engine?
Construct and Construct 2 are not the same thing.
We have Construct Classic, and open source game making engine.
We have since written a new engine from the ground up, Construct 2, which isn't open source.
They are both very distinct.
They probably thought they could change that by adding a "2" at the end :c
We added a 2 to the end because it's our second game engine! They are not the same product.
You are a ******* idiot. Construct 1 was mostly in c++ and this is now in html5 and javascript (making it web compatible). So basically its a whole new engine.
Construct 1 is still FREE and OPEN-SOURCE .... so i don't see the big hoey about the fact that they want to make a profit out of a new web compatible version .
Exactly , at least people can still use the open source one for free and commercial use , The second one is more for web-use , i don't like web games :(
You can use Construct 2 for commercial use too!
