The Scene Designer is used to create and edit levels and game states (Scenes) by using actors, tilesets, and behaviours.Īdditional tools permit the user to import images for use as foregrounds and backgrounds in scenes, import and edit fonts, import sounds and music files ( MP3 and OGG are supported, depending on the export target), and alter game settings such as player controls and game resolution.The Actor Editor is used to create and edit game entities (Actors) and their settings, including behaviours, physics, and animations.The Tileset Editor is used to import and edit tilesets, including their collision shapes, appearance, and animations.
Physics and collisions are managed by Box2D, which can be selectively or completely disabled to decrease any potential performance impact for games that don't require full physics simulation. Games created in Stencyl can be exported to the web via Adobe Flash Player, and to personal computers as executable games, as well as onto various mobile devices as iOS and Android applications.
