Fast and Easy to Use

Whatever your background, Visionaire Studio has many features for you to take advantage of!
Visionaire Studio is great for quickly getting ideas down as you can do everything without having to type a single line of code. You just click and select!

Bring your game to life in a matter of hours or days, instead of weeks or months. What would usually take you ages to achieve via programming can be done much faster due to our event system which allows you to effortlessly combine pre-made actions, queries and code.

Visionaire also provides a visual approach to design with a what you see is what you get type of preview section which allows you to quickly place assets and preview animations and toggle condition states.

Testing what you have currently done so far, is as easy as saving your project, then pressing run.

Built-in Script Editor

Are you ready to flex those finger muscles?
Visionaire Studio is not all about pointing and clicking everywhere. We also have are own built-in text editor which allows you to get more creative than what is already possible with the action parts.

You can use it to further enhance your game or to speed up workflow, if you are more used to coding than wysiwyg visual development.

We fully support Lua 5.1 and the openGL ES 2.0 GLSL shader language.

Most of the available action parts can be accessed or manipulated through the data structure tables or functions we have already created, but you can still write your own custom functions and scripts with ease. All it takes is a little time and patience to get to grips with, and you will soon be throwing scripts out left, right and center.

Our text editor is based on Scintilla, here are some of the available features:
  • Lua (5.1) & GLSL shader language (es 2.0)
  • Color syntax highlighting
  • Collapsible blocks
  • import/read/write external files
  • More in the future...
