Game Builder Garage - Programme With Nintendo!

Nintendo revealed their latest in a series of creative educational gaming titles that have blossomed on the Switch as of late: Game Builder Garage.

The trailer walks through the game's own programming language, connecting inputs to commands and testing output in practice - steadily adding more obstacles, functions, and abilities.

A slew of game logic devices such as Timers, Background Music (BGM), Counters, Effects to name a few make a quick cameo, all of which have been personified with cute little faces and personalities.

We then are presented with a montage of advanced features and games made within Game Builder Garage, ranging from all sorts of genres: horizontal-scrolling shooters, arcade fighters, and card games just to name a few.

On the topic of accessibility in Game Builder Garage, Nick Chavez (Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Nintendo of America) states that this latest title is:

“For anyone who has always wanted to make their own video games, Game Builder Garage is the perfect place to start.”

“Through the use of guided lessons and memorable Nodon characters, Game Builder Garage helps make creating video games just as much fun as playing them!”

Some features that weren’t shown in the trailer include support for a USB Mouse, sharing creations online and the ability to take any custom course made online into “Free Programming Mode”.

 This seems to be the logical evolutionary step for Nintendo just from their line-up of switch titles that utilize the players' ability to craft and create their own games, as seen in the Super Mario Maker series and “Toy-Con Garage” within the Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 01: Variety Kit.

Game Builder Garage is currently set for a physical and digital release on June 11th for the Switch.
