    Crayta is a game creation system that comes free with Stadia Pro. It's very similar to other game creation tools like Gary's Mod and Roblox, but what sets it apart is its exceptional ease of use. Worlds are created from voxels which, of course, might put some people off. However it's a worthy trade off when you realise how easily people can create their stuff.

Worlds are created from voxels which, of course, might put some people off. However it's a worthy trade off when you realise how easily people can create their stuff. Everyone who ever played Minecraft can be a level designer in Crayta.

    On the other end of the game development skill spectrum it features a full Lua code editor in-game. If you ever worked with Unity 3D you'll feel right at home in Crayta's advanced mode. You can truly make some very advanced games in this.

    It's the first game to feature Stadia's State Share feature, which means you can get people to play your creations just by having them click a single link.

    Unit 2 Games are in this for the long run. On the Crayta Developer Portal you can vote on which new features you'd like them to work on first. They also hinted they are already working on several features like Asset importing, vehicles and NPCs. It will be very interesting to see how much this product grows in the coming years.    … Expand

I think that's where Crayta can shine at the moment, but the options are limitless.… Expand

    I really enjoyed playing Crayta. It takes the genre to another level with in game coding. It seems so powerful that I think even the developers have under estimated it's potential. The good news is that they are fully engaged with their community and constantly pushing out updates and features. It's great now and will continue to grow into an amazing game.

    Crayta is a great game creation toolkit. If you only want to play some games that other have developed? No problem. Just start to play. But if you want to be creative you can use the basic mode and use some predefined levels or switch to the advanced mode. In advanced mode you can write your own scripts that can interact with all objects in your level.

    I love this game! Its a game made of many little games. Many of the games are created by the community. There are new programs created and tied into battle passes which allows for even more rewards to be earned.

    Crayta è un gioco che offre moltissimi strumenti per costruire giochi. L'ho trovato geniale di per se e molto coinvolgente soprattutto su una piattaforma come Stadia dove è arrivato in anticipo e a costo zero. Quindi consigliatissimo se avete vi sentite un po' dei game-maker dentro.

    Crayta is ROBLOX MINECRAFT merged together with a fortnite art style, create your own games, join other games or just sit back and design your custom creation. The design program really takes an upgrade if you use keyboard. Fun game, Prop hunt is super popular. It is growing and receiving updates all the time and the creators even put up tutorials to get started. really great community. fun game.

    I really wanted to love this game, but I guess it wasn't for me. Most of the time I just go in, and end up running like a headless chicken, but still having fun. I wish I could dive deeper into creating levels and games with it but found out I couldn't get the patience for it, and would rather play other people's creations. For that, it's amazing and would recomend.

    Crayta is an ingenius game in the vein of Roblox. It is easy to pick up and down and have some fun with it. As it expands, it will be even more fun. I login frequently to check what new stuff is out there, and I may be asucker for tycoons. It is my addictive nature I think.

    Great game overall, especially for one where you build games in it. That said it actually got worse after they stopped being a Stadia exclusive. They used to have good incentives to keep coming back, they dropped them when they came to PC which honestly is a bummer. Overall though the increase in players has been nice. I wish the team the best it's very clear a lot of hard work went into Crayta.

    Crayta is yet another game that serves as a platform for user-created content. Despite the competition, it still manages to stand out and not just because the game is on Google Stadia. With its focus on multiplayer experiences and experimental design, this could become a fantastic library of titles once the community starts generating its own products.
