What it is

Bloxels is a paid game-creation app for making characters, artwork, stories, and 2D games without coding. It runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Creators can build side-scrolling platformers or top-down games through dedicated Games, Characters, Art, and Backgrounds modes, then publish finished projects in the Bloxels Arcade. Character Lab provides controls for speed, size, health, and special abilities. Themed asset packs offer ready-made art, characters, and backgrounds that can be edited, mixed, or used unchanged. Optional physical boards and blocks can be captured as game characters, layouts, or art. Bloxels EDU adds educator resources, support, private class collaboration, and teacher controls over sharing, arcade access, and asset packs. Personal accounts cost $3.99 per month or $19.99 per year, with no free plan. An internet connection is required.
