How to Read This Series
If you’re new to GC2, we recommend starting with the overview article to understand the overall toolkit structure, then learning player control with Characters, camera follow with Cameras, and logic building with Visual Scripting.
If you’re already using GC2, go directly to the module article you need. The final “5 Sample Implementations” article provides cross-module usage examples as reference for actually building games.
Part I: Core Features (7 Articles)
The basic features included in the Game Creator 2 core package. Since they form the foundation for all modules, we recommend understanding them first.
1. Overview — Feature List and Getting Started
An introductory article covering GC2’s overall picture, package structure, target users, version info, and module list. Please read this first as the starting point for the entire series.
2. Character System
Covers all character control features including Player/NPC movement, rotation, animation, IK, ragdoll, Interaction, and footsteps.
3. Camera System
Comprehensive coverage of camera design patterns including TPS/FPS/Fixed/Freelook/Lock-on Camera Shots, transitions, Avoid Clipping, noise, and shake.
4. Visual Scripting
Explains GC2’s unique no-code logic building with four elements: Trigger, Instruction, Condition, and Event. Also includes advanced topics like Hotspot, Action Point, and Command Receiver.
5. Variables
Organizes the four types of variable scopes (Local/Global/Local List/Global List), each data type, and variable reference, manipulation, and usage.
6. Advanced Features (Audio/Signals/Save & Load/Tween)
Covers cross-cutting features within the core that are slightly more advanced: sound management, event notification (Signals), save & load, and Tween animation.
7. How to Build a Basic Game
A tutorial for building your first working game with GC2, from character creation to camera setup, trigger placement, scene transitions, and UI connections.
Part II: Modules (8 Articles)
Paid modules that extend the core. Combine the modules you need based on your game genre.
8. Inventory
Covers all features of the item management system: item definitions, Bags, Equipment, Crafting, Dismantling, Merchants, Loot Tables, Sockets, Weight/Currency, and UI.
9. Dialogue
Comprehensive coverage of the node-based conversation editor, branching/conditions/random, actor setup, Bark (monologue), speech bubble UI, and localization support.
10. Stats
Explains RPG-style numerical design using Attributes (HP/MP), Stats (strength/intelligence), Status Effects (buffs/debuffs), Formulas, and Stat Tables (level tables).
11. Quests
Covers quest system design and construction: Quest/Task/Subtask hierarchies, automatic condition tracking, Journal UI, minimap integration, and story progression management.
12. Behavior (AI: FSM, BT, GOAP, Utility AI)
A powerful module that lets you build four AI methods (State Machine, Behavior Tree, Goal-Oriented Action Planning, Utility AI) with no code. Covers design patterns for enemy AI and NPC behavior.
13. Perception (Awareness & Stealth System)
Covers the stealth game AI perception system with four sensors (Sight, Hearing, Smell, Feel), Awareness, Luminance, Camouflage, Evidence, and Relay.
14. Shooter (Ranged Combat & Firearms)
Explains how to build a gunfight system with Weapon, Ammo, Magazine, Sight, Recoil, Muzzle, Shell, Projectile, and Biomechanics (IK). Essential for FPS/TPS implementation.
15. Melee (Close Combat & Combo System)
Covers the close combat system for action games with Weapon, Shield, Combo, Poise, Reaction, Hit Scan, Skill, Phase, and Strike Chain.
Part III: Practice (1 Article)
A sample implementation report that combines multiple modules to actually build games.
16. 5 Sample Implementations — Escape, Fighting, RPG, Survival, FPS
Detailed coverage of five different genres (escape game, boxing, Dragon Quest-style RPG, survival craft, Apex-style FPS) including module selection, Stats/Inventory design, Behavior Tree, and implementation order.
