Clickteam will be making a post here soon and helping people get started, but I'll start by echoing what I just posted in the General Forum:

Clickteam, the company that makes The Games Factory 2 and Multimedia Fusion 2, has developed a free Newgrounds editions of The Games Factory 2. This version lets you make games and publish them as SWF to run on NG. You don't need any prior programming experience.

Sexysexybicycle is using Multimedia Fusion 2 to develop his game, Dooder! We're hoping this software will let more people live out their game development dreams. :)

This is awesome.

inb4 several threads with no point get made.

This is very neat... I am downloading it now and will see what I can come up with. It's been a while since I've tried making any games or flashes since I have been so busy with other things, however this is something I will take some time to figure out since it's apparently easy to use and such.
Thanks for this Tom, looking forward to seeing everybody's submissions etc.

Although I'm sure I'll be shit using it, I shall download it and no doubt have fun checking it out.

Thanks Tom.

Thanks Tom.

Same, I still suck at flash but hell at least I do something right.

Tom just copy pasted.

Holy shit, that sounds awesome.

Gonna download it now, see what it's all about.

I wonder who'll make the "Game Factory General" thread while they've still got the chance.. ;)

Let's just hope this doesn't increase the amount of spam the portal gets.

Will try it as soon as I can!

In the wiki it says PC only. Do you mean for Windows computers only or for personal computers in general?
If you mean Windows then will there be support for Mac?

I would say fuck macs they is for hipsters and bitches but you use them and they have some cool interface features so i hope they do something for macs because you are a cool guy 14hr i wanna see games you make

This is worth checking out. A new forum for just one thing? This is obviously something big.

I use a Mac, and they are very, very good. At least try one before ranting w/o punctuation.

If Game Factory comes out with a mac version we should make a game or something. Even if they don't we should make a game some time. idk man.

Yes currently all flavors of our tools are PC (Windows) based only for the authoring side. Currently we are finishing testing on several new runtime options (Like the flash one you can build with in the NG Edition). They include Android, iOS and Mac. Once they are done, then we will move to providing a Mac version of the tool itself, as a lot of the work will be already laid down with the Mac, and iOS runtimes.

Note that it's only the editor that only runs on Windows. The games you build are regular SWF files, and will run just fine on Windows/Mac/Linux (Flash Player 9+).

Why Howdy MR. Newforum Glad to meet ya.

ok Sharlet, I met the new neighbors, can I go home now? I got female wrestling to watch in my boxers....

Multimedia Fusion 2 is what I've always used.

Guys, try it, its amazing.

C'mon guys, let's go do some real coding.

Wow, I'm really excited to try this out. I could only ever create very simple games, but this sounds like it might help out a lot. After a I get all of my other work out of the way in the next week I have a feeling that I'm going to have a lot of fun using this stuff!

Has anyone read the "Before we start" section of the tutorial? What's up with the instructions for adjusting your resolution? Isn't almost everybody these days using higher than 1024x768 resolution? I kind of chuckled.

Well there goes all my Flash experience out the window.

Agreed. Multimedia Fusion is insanely easy to use and extremely flexible. It, however, is not free, but is worth every penny.

I really hope good games will come from TGF2 on this site. :) Also, awesome job, Clickteam.

I hope these smart technologies develop slower, or it'll crush what I've always worked hard at: programming.

This is pretty cool.

I've fiddled around with Flash a bit, but never put in the Time to learn AS, to make a game. I suppose I'll play with this a bit and see how it is.

It's kind of funny now to see this happening, like GameMaker for Flash. Hopefully the results won't be as shitty (although it could give us more stuff to blam). It's kind of messed up though, I was starting to learn ActionScript so I could make a game in Flash. Well, if it's as good as they claim it is, I might end up having wasted time learning to program stuff.

Although it's not really a waste since I've used this knowledge...

ive already made two games with this for the halloween competition. mr fulp chose to not care :)
