Flowlab changed me from a child who liked making paper board games to a full-time college student and game developer. If you want to make a game but scripting scares you, this is the place to be. You will not find a better alternative. The code is basically a slightly simplified version of Unreal Engine's Blueprints, and teaches most of the basics of code logic. This gives an excellent foundation in the theory of coding that will help propel you into computer science. The UI is nearly seamless, the art editor is quite frankly better than most standalone art websites like pixilart, and the price is shockingly low. I have been so successful with Flowlab that my first Steam game was made on it! Now, stop reading reviews you dingus; go make a game!
