Tonight I found a great little online flash game creator called Sploder! with the option to publish your work and put it on your own website. I spent a couple of hours playing around to see what it could do and it looks very promising. You can save your work that you've done if you want to finish it another time. The graphics are very colourful and with the time I had I made a short, challenging and action packed level.
The online game editor/engine is simple to use, everything is self explanatory with a variety of objects, backgrounds, weapons, floors, walls, traps, enemies and more to use within your game. There are hundreds of tiles to use and I didn't have the time to go through them all but from what I did see looked great, and depending on what type of game you would like to make, there's something for everyone. There are 3 different styles of games that you can make, Platformer, 3D Mission or a Shooter. I gave the platformer a go to see what could be achieved and considering that this was not a game that I spent much time on creating, I thought it turned out well.
There is an option when publishing to set it to 8bit colour and to turn off lighting effects to make the game load quicker on your website and for faster game play but I chose not to do this just to see the outcome. You can also test your game at any time while creating it to make sure that all parts and areas of the game are playable.
Please be aware that the game The Lost Journey will take a few minutes to load up depending on your internet connection speed.
