FPS Creator is a commercial computer software program from The Game Creators for the PC that allows video game developers (or anyone else), to create first-person shooter video games without the need to use code. Users can create many levels and then build their game as an .EXE file with an assets folder; the only limitation being that the user can only use up to 50 levels in one .EXE.
FPS Creator works on the basis of a click and drag engine, in which users can select segments such as walls, floors, ceilings, doors and windows to create a level. This can then be populated by entities ranging from furniture, desk objects, lights, enemies, weapons and pick-ups (health packs, ammo etc). The user can also light their level using light-markers from which the colour and range of the light can be defined. Lighting in FPSC was recently upgraded with the implementation of DarkLights, light-maps developed for one of The Game Creators' other products, DarkBASIC Professional. Finally, sound zones, hurt zones and win zones can be used to make the users level more complete.
