"Here's some advice: if you've never made a game before, and want to, pick up Stencyl RIGHT NOW and try it!"

Chevy Ray Johnston
Creator of FlashPunk

"Let me say one thing: I love Stencyl. It's an incredible tool which will allow you to save a lot of time, and you should definitively try it."

Emanuele Feronato
Veteran Game Developer and Blogger

"I've been playing with Stencyl for 3 or 4 days now, and I'm already convinced that you're sitting on top of a monumental change to how flash game development works."

Michael Gribbin
Game Designer at Gameloft and Creator of Balls in Space

"I have been in the casual game space for some time now and it's not too often something really innovative comes along. Stencyl is an amazing product and I'm sure you will have great success with it."

Ira Willey
Founder of AddictingGames.com

"Having already finished two prototypes with the help of Stencyl (one of which might just evolve into a proper, commercial game), I frankly can't recommend it enough. It's powerful, flexible, sports an excellent level editor and, importantly, offers a fully featured free version."

Konstantinos Dimopoulos (gnomeslair)
Writer for IndieGames.com

"I just wanted to extend my thanks to you and everybody on the Stencyl team for developing such a nice toolset. I was very intimidated to get into flash development and it can be attested by Kepa Auwe of RocketCat games that this was true. Your support and openness during this learning curve was what cemented the deal for me."

Benjamin "Amon26" Braden
Indie Game Developer and Creator of Gyossait

"Being able to drag and drop code blocks together has sped up my workflow so much. I was able to prototype Making Monkeys in just a few days and try out new gameplay elements very quickly."

Greg Sergeant
Indie Game Developer and Creator of Making Monkeys

"As a graphic designer who loves making games, it's the only tool that gives me everything I need to really make things happen. Watching 10,000+ people enjoy my games, getting sponsorships-- this is stuff I've dreamt about but I never thought it'd actually happen."

Folmer Kelly
Indie Game Developer and Creator of TBTTSTATDS

"I think the product is absolutely excellent. It looks lovely on both my Dev Windows machine and my Mac laptop, and the interface overall just feels really slick and well put together."

Richard Perrin
Independent Game Developer
