How to make a game without coding

Write what the player does, play the first version, and keep changing it in the same chat.

  1. Make a first-person 3D exploration game: stand on a grassy hill above a sea of clouds, find ten scattered stars, and wake a guardian robot.

    1

    Describe your game

    Say what the player does, how they win, and the look you want. Plain sentences work, so you do not need to pick an engine or write code.

  2. 2

    Play it in your browser

    Manus builds a first version and opens it in the Preview tab, so you can play it right where you made it.

  3. Hide two more stars on the hill.

    Make the guardian robot wave when I find it.

    Ask for changes

    Tell Manus what to adjust, such as the difficulty, controls, levels, or visual style. Keep refining it in the same conversation.

Edit your game by describing the change

Tell Manus what to change in the chat, from how the game plays to how it looks. Play the new version as soon as it is built.

  • Change the rules

    Ask for higher jumps, quicker enemies, or extra levels, and the next version plays differently. The game developer launch post covers more settings, like speed and gravity.

    Make the jumps higher.

  • Restyle the world

    Every image, animation, sound, and font in your game is listed in the Assets tab. Choose any of them and describe how it should change.

    Switch to a snowy night.

  • Use your own character

    Make a character with the AI image generator, then ask Manus to put it in your game as the hero.

    Use my space cat as the hero.
