  • Adventure Maker overview:

    Adventure Maker logoAdventure Maker is a free innovative toolkit to create point-and-click games and multimedia software in minutes, without any scripting or programming. It runs on Windows, and it allows creating software for Windows, PSP, iPhone, and iPod touch.

    Adventure Maker is extremely easy to use. All you have to do is to import your pictures, add some hotspots to link the pictures to one another, and you are done!

    Adventure Maker is particularly suitable for the creation of picture-based adventure games, virtual tours, educational software, presentations, and interactive visits.

    When creating software for Windows, Adventure Maker provides "Load/Save Game" functions, conversations, inventory items, 360-degree interactive panoramas, support for Flash, multiple-CD distribution, third-person game characters for creating third-person adventure games, full-screen transitions, water/smoke effects, multi-channel sounds, animations, support for over 30 file types (OGG, XviD, DivX, mp3...), support for plugins, and more.

    The Adventure Maker package contains an icon editor, a music composer, an innovative program for drawing, a program for batch resizing and compressing pictures, and more. The package also includes sample games, tutorials, and language presets for easily creating games in other languages (English, Catalan, Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, and Spanish).

    For an introduction of Adventure Maker, examples of created games, and a simple tutorial, please watch the Video Guided Tour.

    For a comprehensive list of features, and a comparison between the Free Edition and the Full Edition, please read the Features page.

    You may also be interested to know what's new in Version 4.4 and what's new in Version 4.5.

    The Full Edition is compatible with the Free Edition, meaning that you can start creating your software with the Free Edition, and then possibly open it and continue working on it with the Full Edition. For more information on the Full Edition, or to purchase it, please visit the Full Edition Store page.

    System requirements:

    Adventure Maker runs on Windows XP and Windows Vista, as well as some older Windows operating systems.

    The software compiled for iPhone / iPod touch is safe HTML-based software that runs through the built-in web browser. No hack or system modification of any kind is required to play it (though the games work on modified systems as well).

  • Evaluating the advanced features of the Full Edition:

    It is possible to evaluate the advanced features of the Full Edition (360-degree panoramas, third-person sprites, plugins, scripting, Flash, ActiveX components, etc.) from within the Free Edition (download). Just launch the Free Edition and you will notice that the buttons that belong to the Full Edition are grayed but you can still click on them (for projects with less than 20 frames). You can even create your own plugins. Please note that some features are available only when creating software for the Windows platform (in the Project Properties, set the "target platform" to "Windows" to access all the features).
