    "Buildbox is the future"

    Edited 2019-05-03

    Pros: I really like how easy BuildBox is to use. It's a key pillar in the no code movement that makes it really easy for people like me to create new games. I have noticed that many titles from BuildBox have made it to the top 100 on the App Store.

    Cons: I wish there was an asset store for BuildBox kind of like how Unity has. That way I could drag and drop a new assets without having to search on Turbo squid etc I hope that they will bring this into BuildBox someday.

    Overall: Overall my experience with BuildBox has been really good. There are a few things that I would add but I hear that they are coming down the pipe. I wish they were more clothes no code tools like BuildBox. That way anyone like me who just has an idea can make a game.
