Clickteam has been releasing easy to use game development software since 1994's Klik & Play. All of their releases function in a similar manner: games are created without coding, but by placing graphics in a WYSIWYG fashion in the level editor, and selecting from and modifying events in the event editor. They all come packaged with graphic and sonic resources, an image editor, and externally-created-resource importing.

Clickteam also a have a few other related programs, such as Install Creator, and Patch Maker.

Releases

The programs exist in two strands: Klik & Play / The Games Factory, and Click & Create / Multimedia Fusion. The later having a more general, that is a non game-specific, focus. That means very little for the game designer, though. Multimedia Fusion 2 still being the most useful release.

Klik & Play

Klik & Play is a buggy, Windows 3.1, glorious mess of a program. Games must be single screen, sometimes the maths works wrong, monitor resolution can not be changed, and the included sounds and graphics are now iconic (and can now be ripped using KNPUtil).
