  It's actually a complete game development platform. The game I posted was made using only the tools available on the website. The game editor is multiplayer and runs in the browser.

  The game that’s linked was built on dot big bang itself by a team of two developers and one artist with occasional help. The total dev time to make it was about six months, a lot of which was spent refining the game and making sure it was super solid as we launched it with a livestream in front of thousands of people! Games on dot big bang come in a variety of shapes and sizes though. You can make something in a couple of hours or take your time. For some smaller examples: This fun puzzle game was made by one of our community for our summer game jam: https://dotbigbang.com/game/0c4038a5fe064711ba339b1e1c2bbd74/dbb-summer-jam-2023---blockbusters https://dotbigbang.com/game/0c4038a5fe064711ba339b1e1c2bbd74... We also run a weekly scripting challenge in our Discord for tiny experiments on a theme, here’s a pachinko potion mixing game that got made for one: https://dotbigbang.com/game/69153d59db5b45f3aa4485e8af2dafa1/flower-fall---potion-maker?mp=WSC https://dotbigbang.com/game/69153d59db5b45f3aa4485e8af2dafa1...
