Platinum Arts Sandbox Free 3D Game Maker is a free open source 3D Game Maker, world creator and 3D Game Design program currently being used in many schools throughout the world that allows kids and adults to create their own video games, worlds, levels, adventures and quests, even cooperatively! The goal is to make it accessible to kids but also powerful enough for full game projects. With a simple click and roll of a mouse wheel users can modify the world however they want. In the words of a nine year old Sandbox whiz I babysit for, “Press Edit and go fulfill your dreams!”. Now features new game modes such as sidescroller, machinima, kartmode, RPG, and more!
Kids.PlatinumArts.Net for the free download. IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE UPDATE YOUR VIDEO DRIVERS. This video covers the basics of world creation in Platinum Arts Sandbox. Sandbox is a 3D game creator and 3D game design tool based on the Cube 2 engine that allows users to quickly and easily create and edit their own worlds in game, even cooperatively. It is free, open source, and easy to use for Kids and Adults. This is the first tutorial and hopefully there will be more soon. Take care and enjoy!

Make sure you have your video drivers updated. If you still have problems please stop into our chatroom so we can help you! That should be more than enough to run it though a decent video card is important too, especially with updated drivers. Take care!

what the... good tut, but isnt this a Sauerbraten / Cube2 ripoff? exact same style menus (diff colours) and same editor...
We have made it clear that it is based on Cube 2. The difference is that our focus is on the game creation while they focus on their game type. Also we have made it kid friendly so that it can be used in schools all over the world! Teachers are already using it including myself!! Take care.
