No Coding Required
Building game logic is literally a snap
The Best Drag & Drop Interface
Our drag-and-drop gameplay designer pays homage to the successful MIT Scratch project. We extend Scratch's simple block-snapping interface with new functionality and hundreds of ready-to-use blocks.

Write Code if you want
Power users can create and share their own blocks, extend the engine through code, import libraries and write their own custom classes that interact seamlessly with block-based Behaviors.

Create a Masterpiece
Bring your ideas to lifeBuild Worlds
If you're used to graphics editors like Photoshop, you'll feel right at home in the Scene Designer. Familiar features, such as a selection tool, zooming, grid-snapping and flood fill, will help you quickly craft complex worlds out of Actors, Tiles and Terrain.
Create Actors
Drop in graphics from your computer to create Actors on the fly. Then use Stencyl's Actor Editor to tweak your Actors' appearances, behaviors and physical properties, and to get them ready for showtime.
Make Money
Realize your game's full potentialSell Your Game
Bringing your game to the App Store, Google Play or alternate stores like Steam is the best way to make money and reach millions of players. Our best games have brought in enough to allow their developers to quit their jobs and create games full-time.
Embed Ads
Games can embed ads as a primary or secondary source revenue. We support iAds and AdMob for mobile games while web games can use Newgrounds. A larger variety of networks (including ad mediation) are supported through extensions.
Sell Digital Goods
Games that wish to adopt a freemium model can use in-game purchases to provide unlockable levels & content while offering part (or all) of the game for free, boosting its reach to more players.
Seek a Sponsorship
Sell rights to your game to a sponsor who will market the game on your behalf. Stencyl games have been proudly sponsored by big names (ArmorGames, Kongregate, Newgrounds) and small names alike.
