Hi everyone,

The closest thing you can get to no programming is to use an all out game
creation engine such as the GMA engine, Justin Daubenmire and I looked at
this a few years back to see if it would meet our needs.  Even with
something like this though that basically does a lot of the work for you if
you want to do anything much you still have to do quite a bit of scripting
after you create the basic game levels and put all the objects where you
want them to be at least from my limited understanding of how the thing
works.  If you are really wanting to make games, as has been said on here
many times the best thing is to start learning whatever scripting language
or programming language you decide to, for getting up and going with as
minimal an amount of work and study as possible I'd say the bgt engine is
probably your best bet.  Just start with some real simple projects at first
so you don't get frustrated and give up, don't sit down and try to write
your own World of Warcraft on your first try.

I am sure that all this is true for mainstream developers as well I know for
a fact that they've got tools that do a lot of the drudge work for you, the
basic creating of game levels, putting characters and objects where you want
them, I am sure they don't hack this stuff out by hand the way we have to,
but I guarantee let's say with a game like super streetfighter iv there is
some serious programming or scripting that somebody has to do to make that
game happen.

Best of luck to you, I've considered getting into bgt myself but simply
don't have the time/energy to put into it right now.

Tom

Hi Josh,

Well, you are out of luck there. There is really no way to effectively
create games without using some type of programming language on some level.
In this case with BGT games are scripted which gives you the flexability of
a programming language while at the same time effectively reducing the skill
needed to get things like audio, input, speech, etc up and running quickly.
If you think you can create games totally without any programming involved
then you are sadly mistaken.

Cheers!
