MANAGE YOUR PROJECT, NOT YOUR CODE


CodeOnce in C#, then run your game in Windows or on your very own retail XBox 360 using XNA Game Studio Express and the XNA Creator's Club.

Based on the world's most powerful 2D game engine, make use of sprites, scrolling backgrounds, 3D objects, lighting, physics, and collision detection.

Purchase of Torque Game Builder allows the use of the Game Builder Toolset with the Torque X engine, giving you easy access to particle effect creation and manipulation, tiles, level building, and packaging.

Make any kind of game you can think up, but get started with five complete game making tutorials including all art and source. More tutorials and starter kits are on the way, and we can't wait to see what the community comes up with!

You pay no royalties, EVER, with our ground-breaking royalty free licenses. You can publish your game ANYWHERE you want. It's your game, you make the decisions.

"Just looking back at the first beta and seeing the huge amount of work that has been accomplished over the last few weeks, it's amazing. It's really clear to see how much you guys have put into this. You cant imagine how much I'm dying to test this on my Xbox 360!"

GAMING TO THE POWER OF X

What's New?

In conjunction with the release of XNA Game Studio Express earlier today, GarageGames is pleased to make Torque X available for download!

You can download the binary of the Torque X Engine here (yes, it currently resides on the TGB demo download page). The binary also includes the 30-day free trial of the TGB Editors tailored for use with Torque X. Also included are a couple example games and Starter Kits, to help people understand how to use the new engine.

We are calling this our "Open Beta" of Torque X. One reason we're doing this is we want a bit more time to bang on the engine and improve the functionality between the TGB editors and Torque X before we officially call it 1.0. So, feel free to give us feedback in the Torque X open forums. On the other hand, what we have now is pretty cool, and we didn't want to just sit on it since XNA is launched today. So, currently the TGB Editors and Torque X features only support 2D games. 3D support is in the works, but is not available with this release. Also, we are not quite ready to release the source to the engine, so Torque X Pro is not yet available for purchase.

We are giving all owners of the Torque Game Builder the Torque X version of TGB for free too! If you already own Torque Game Builder - INDIE, you can use the registration key for TGB found on your My Account Page to unlock the TGBX trial.

If you already own one of the following products:

Then click the download link for the product on your My Account Page, and you will have the option to download the TGB Editors for Torque X.
