- A design tool where the design is playable the same day
Stage Engine turns a design idea into something you can play on the same day. A Mac and Windows desktop app on Godot, where Director 1 writes the code and you build the world.
- An AI game builder where you still do the building
Stage Engine is an AI game builder for Mac and Windows. You place the world by hand in the builder, Director 1 writes the GDScript, and the game runs locally on Godot.
- Game development software you install, with AI inside it
Stage Engine is installed game development software for Mac and Windows, built on open source Godot, with Director 1 writing GDScript into a project on your own disk.
- Is there a Stage Engine command line?
Stage Engine has no command line for building games. It is a desktop app for Mac and Windows, and what it produces is a plain Godot project directory on your disk.
- Plugins: where the manual controls live
Plugins are how Stage Engine exposes terrain, water, weather and behaviour as things you adjust by hand. The project underneath is a standard Godot project.
- Refunds and cancelling
How billing works for Stage Engine: the download is free, plans are monthly, cancelling stops the next payment, and if a charge is wrong you should contact us.
- Roadmap: the direction, and the things we have ruled out
What Stage Engine is today, how the direction gets decided, and the things deliberately ruled out: cloud building, browser preview, offline mode and team plans.
- Security: where your project lives and what leaves your machine
How Stage Engine handles your project. The files sit on your own disk, the game runs locally on Godot, and building sends what the AI needs over the network.
- Source status: what is open here, and what you can take with you
Godot is open source and it is the engine underneath Stage Engine. The capability layer on top is our own product. Your project is a plain Godot project you keep.
- The creator in AI game creator is you
Stage Engine is a desktop app for Mac and Windows. Director 1 writes the code, you build the world and decide whether the game is good, and it runs locally on Godot.
- What runs in the cloud, and what runs on your machine
Your game runs locally on Godot, on your own Mac or Windows machine. The AI, asset generation and world data come over the network. There is no streaming or cloud rendering.
- Where assets come from in Stage Engine
Stage Engine does not run a paid asset store. Art comes from generation, from the web, or from you, and it lands in a real Godot project on your disk.
- Where this tool sits, and what it does not replace
Stage Engine is a Mac and Windows desktop tool built on Godot. It replaces writing GDScript and stitching an engine together; it does not replace playtesting or design.
- You searched for an online game builder. This one is a download.
Stage Engine is not a browser tool. It is a desktop app for Mac and Windows that runs your game locally on Godot. Here is what that trade buys you, and who it does not suit.
