Questions
Why pay for Myth Engine when free engines exist?
If you want to finish a whole game, Myth Engine gives you a route to one. A free engine gives you the tools; here, six step-by-step guides each build a complete game with you. You play it first, every chapter ends with a game you can play, and each chapter’s finished project is there if yours goes a different way. You can follow every game guide in the free demo. You build with visual Logic, from over 400 built-in Actions, and write JavaScript in Monaco when you want more. The full version adds publishing: one HTML file that anyone with a modern browser can play, a web folder, or desktop and mobile projects you build and sign. Sell what you make with no royalties. It’s $84.99 USD, once, with no subscription and no paid upgrades.
Do I need to know how to code?
Five of the six guides use no JavaScript. Chess adds a chess program, Stockfish, with two one-line Run Code steps; every chess rule is visual Logic.
What kinds of games can I make?
2D and 3D games. For platformers there’s the Platformer Editor, with movement presets for the hero and a check that searches each room for a route. Ready-made Logic such as Top-down Controls and Vertical Shooter Controls gets a game moving. For story games there’s branching dialogue in Classic RPG or Visual Novel style, cutscenes and illustrated books. In 3D you sculpt and paint terrain, scatter foliage, add water with waves and swimming, bake the lighting and bring in GLB and glTF models. Multiplayer is built in. Games run on Babylon.js, rendering with WebGPU by default and WebGL 2 as a fallback.
Can I sell what I make?
Yes. Games made with the full version can be sold, with no royalties, however much they earn. No Myth Engine account, device activation or online license check.
Is it still being updated?
Yes. New features arrive often, and every update is included. Install Myth Engine with the itch.io app and it keeps itself up to date.
What do I do after I download?
First, install and open Myth Engine. Then learn the workspace. Then pick a game guide and start its Chapter 1. It makes a new project and installs the guide’s Starter Kit, which the free demo can do.
Where do I get help?
Read the 146-page manual, or ask in the Myth Engine Discord (opens a new tab).
