Hi everyone,
I'm working since 3 months on FPS Maker on my free time, using Irrlicht for the rendering and openAL for the audio.
FPS Maker is an FPS game engine with no coding knowledge requirements designed for absolute newbies in game development. Architecturaly, it looks like a game with its own map editing tool,
in which you can import your own assets.
The idea is to "paint" map on a grid for the rooms (walls, floors) and placing elements over it and voila, just click play button and you can play your current level in a new window.
Once all the maps are finished, user can build a standalone game in a few clicks and redistribute it to anyone.
Currently, only Windows is supported, both for the editor and the engine, but I plan to extend the support for other platforms at least for the engine part (the game itself).
For the interested, you will find a link to download a demo game at the end of the topic.
This is a quick preview of what FPS Maker looks like now:
