#GAME BUILDER GARAGE TRIAL#
After seeing non-programmer Nintendo employees using the Toy-Con Garage to create their own games, Masuda described that he wanted to "find a way to make it easier for people to have the fun of creating games through trial and error." The developers tested the game on elementary school students interested in programming to ensure the lessons were accessible to beginners. In a developer interview, Masuda and programmer Kosuke Teshima described the Nintendo Labo series, particularly the VR Kit, as a key inspiration for Game Builder Garage. The game was directed by Naoki Masuda, a programmer at Nintendo who had previously worked on Nintendo Labo and the Pikmin series. Game Builder Garage was developed specifically by Nintendo EPD 4, the division behind games like Nintendo Labo, Ring Fit Adventure, 1-2-Switch, Miitopia and many more. The game was announced on May 5, 2021, being released on June 11, 2021. The game also allows for the use of commercial USB computer mice. Fans of the game have been creating their own platforms for sharing their games the most popular one being MyGarage Games.
#GAME BUILDER GARAGE CODE#
However, it does not feature a game browser, but rather a code has to be shared by the creator for other people to access it. Game Builder Garage has a share function, that allows creators to upload their games and share them with other people. Games built within Game Builder Garage can support up to eight different Joy-Con, effectively allowing up to eight-player local multiplayer games to be built. The game features a lesson mode to guide the player through using the Nodon language and to help them understand some of the principles of game development though a series of seven built-in games that the player can create. Nodon are available to interface nearly all features of the Switch and Joy-Con, including the infrared sensors and motion controls. The player builds a program by adding Nodon and making connections between the various nodes on Nodon, such as connecting the Stick Nodon to the Person Nodon as to tie the analog stick to movement of the character on-screen.

The Nodon represent various facets of input, game output, and game logic, such as a Stick Nodon that reports input from the Joy-Con analog stick or a Person Nodon that represents an on-screen character. In Game Builder Garage, the player uses a visual programming language centralized on the concept of creatures called Nodon.
