Topic: Game Builder Garage

Well this is nuts

Basically Nintendo taking the best part of labo ditching the cardboard and making it it’s own thing!

Releases on June 11th and it’s basically a game design tool. Pretty sweet!

I consistently find myself overjoyed by games that serve as programming for normies, basically since Scribblenauts put something like that into the Wii U game, but I've yet to play one of them. Maybe this time...

I'm so hyped for this, I can already see people making some pretty insane stuff.

I have a feeling this means Labo is dead as well, since they're re-using Labo assets now.

Best part, its only 30$!

I really am excited for this game. I can now make all the platforming levels I have ever wanted to

I'm absolutely stoked. This looks like a perfect hand holder into game programming.

Not something I am personaly interested but it looks cool.

@VoidofLight Labo has been dead for some time now lol

@Balta666 Yeah, but people kept saying that a new kit was coming, when this disproves that by confirming it’s official death.

@VoidofLight I already saw people saying this was going to be tied to Labo but as it is dead they released it separatelly which makes sense

@Balta666 It would’ve been weird if it was connected to labo, unless it was going to just be like “you could code your stuff to support Labo controls”, which they still could do now.

@VoidofLight actually quite the opposite as that already exists and is called Labo Garage and is part of the first pack if I remember correctly. This appears to build on top of it to have something more on the like of dreams

I'm trying to keep my hype low, but also pretty interested on this one! If we have a big range of possibilities, I'll grab it!
Seems like a nice "game" to play when I don't have much time, can stop basically anytime and continue with the project later.

While I don't think this will be a day one purchase for me, I'll be keeping on eye on this game. I'm kinda surprised Nintendo hasn't done something like this before. It's no Dreams, but hey, it could have a charm all it's own.

Now all we need is a new Mario Paint.

I would've rather it been called that tbh, I know garage is preexistent though so whatever.

It's been announced that the game has mouse support, motion controls, rumble and, the most exciting one, support to use the IR camera in games! Games can also be multiplayer and the physical version comes with cards giving you info on what each Nodon does (timer, button, control stick, etc.). You can also buy the cards from the nintendo store. You can also save up to 64 games in total (Games you've made and games made by others). Thank you for coming to my Game Builder Garage TED talk.

Ooh, that seems pretty cool, I was hoping for more than 64 but that's alright

@Slowdive In the Switch news for European countries (accessed from the Switch main menu), they called it Game Builder Garage...

Really? That is nice! If we can do some crazy things with several and several nodes, I'm even more interested
