Make HTML5 Games - No Programming Required
Construct 2 is the follow up from Scirra's Construct Classic which has had around 500,000 downloads to date. Construct 2 allows people to make game in an intuitive and visual way. Scirra's ambition is to make Construct 2 better, more stable and more powerful than Construct Classic. Construct 2 is based on years of experience developing Construct Classic.
Export to HTML5
Construct 2 initially only exports to HTML5, but more export formats are going to be supported in the future such as EXE and possibly native mobile applications. Construct 2 is mainly for 2D game development. It aims to open the doors of game making to everyone by presenting making games in a visual and intuitive way.
HTML5 Demos
Scirra has released a couple of fully playable and functional HTML5 demos. The project files for these demos can also be downloaded and experimented with.
Construct 2 Versions
There are currently three versions of Construct 2, the free edition, the standard early adopter and the business early adopter. The free version comes bundled with free music, sound effects, ambient sounds and animated sprites. The paid editions release a few restrictions the free version places and also come with far more resources to use in your games.
Learning Resources
Scirra's website has lots of tutorials and their forum is very active.

I've recently implemented a pause menu, a death screen menu, and a checkpoint system to Super Agent: Drunk Kent. The functionality seems good at the moment. I really wanted a minimalist look to the menus, so as not to detract from other things on screen. Also (as always) I've been experimenting with some music, so a new track features in this video. Almost a synth vibe, and the addition of a vocal element was something i didnt expect to like, but i did...If you like the progress made, feel free to jump over to steam and have a look..or better yet wish list Super Agent: Drunk Kent.. Cheers!

Hello All.
Somebody should update the "Platforms" supported by the engine.
I add a game in SlideDB and the was no construct 2 option because there no Android support for it.
Please update :)
Simply the best.
What does it mean when it says it only exports in HTML5?
Easy and powerfull for 2D games creation !
(buried)
This engine is really awful, its need to bundle freaking whole Chromiun engine to run primitive game
I love this engine!, is very fast for created game!
it look easier than mmf2 xDDD
Okay, ever since the little trail that resulted from my first comment -- I take no issue with Construct 2, it just sort of came out of nowhere (at least for me). I hope you guys succeed with it, and maybe even manage to get within the realm of 3D games.
I'm still going to be using Construct Classic, but I wish you guys all the best.
Correct me if I'm wrong -- but wasn't Construct made to be an open source engine?
Construct and Construct 2 are not the same thing.
We have Construct Classic, and open source game making engine.
We have since written a new engine from the ground up, Construct 2, which isn't open source.
They are both very distinct.
They probably thought they could change that by adding a "2" at the end :c
We added a 2 to the end because it's our second game engine! They are not the same product.
You are a ******* idiot. Construct 1 was mostly in c++ and this is now in html5 and javascript (making it web compatible). So basically its a whole new engine.
Construct 1 is still FREE and OPEN-SOURCE .... so i don't see the big hoey about the fact that they want to make a profit out of a new web compatible version .
Exactly , at least people can still use the open source one for free and commercial use , The second one is more for web-use , i don't like web games :(
You can use Construct 2 for commercial use too!
