VXLScript is the plain-language way you write a VXLVERSE game. Each line is short and readable — like World "beach", Character "Mara":, say Hello!, Enemy "Grunt": and Win when: defeat all. Only those keywords are English; names and dialogue can be in your own language. You write your game and a playable 3D game builds live as you type.

Do I need to know how to code to use VXLVERSE?

No. You write plain readable lines like World, Character, say, Enemy and Win when. There is no programming — just short sentences in your own language (only those keywords stay English), indented to show what belongs to what.

What kinds of games can I make?

Four kinds: a Story adventure (the default), a wave Battle (Mode: waves), a Parkour jump course (Mode: parkour) and an endless Horde arena (Mode: horde). One line picks the kind.

How do I add a character?

Write Character "Name": on its own line, then indent the lines below it — for example say Hello! to give dialogue, and hair: blue to style them.

How do I make the player win?

Put win inside a choice or after a finished quest, or add a top-level rule. Rules include Win when: defeat all, Win when: player has crown, Win when: talked to Mara, Win when: score is 30, Win when: survive 300s (a timer), Win when: reach Castle Peak (walk to another world), Win when: player has carrot and onion and mushroom (a whole set), and Win when: defend Rex for 90s (escort). Add Lose when: time > 90s or Lose when: Rex dies for the fail case.

Yes. Playing any game is free with no account, and making games in the studio is free. Plus is optional and adds more AI help with your stories.

Can an AI assistant make a VXLVERSE game for me?

Yes. The complete VXLScript language is published at https://vxlverse.com/llms.txt. An AI assistant reads it, writes the game script, and links you to https://vxlverse.com/make?code= — the link opens the script directly in the live studio editor, already building.

The guide

Make your game. Look up any line.

Ten minutes from an empty page to a game your friends can play: pick a world, add the people and a goal, then play and share. Under that is every line the game understands, each with an example that opens straight in the studio.

What you can make

Four kinds of game

Every game starts the same way — one line picks the kind. Story is the default; no Mode line needed.

Story
the default — no Mode line
Worlds, characters who talk and remember you, choices, quests, treasure and a win.
Battle
Mode: waves
Fight wave after wave of your enemies to a boss finale — melee, guns and spells.
Parkour
Mode: parkour
A floating-platform jump course auto-built from your title. Leap to the goal.
Horde
Mode: horde
One arena and no way out. Enemies never stop coming and keep getting stronger, and every level-up hands you a new power to pick.

What your game can do

Not a toy — every game ships with real mechanics, no plugins or setup.

Dialogue & choicesNPCs talk in typewriter pages and offer branching choices you write.
Melee, guns & spellsSwords, hammers, pistols, blasters — and in a wave battle Fireball, Thunder and Blizzard, free.
BossesTurn any enemy into a boss with telegraphed attacks, HP phases and its own bar.
Ally squadsCompanions who follow you and fight — up to a squad of 20.
RelationshipsCharacters remember how you treat them and can join you — or turn hostile.
Quests & itemsFetch quests, multi-step quest chains, gifts, usable potions and ammo, hidden loot.
Connected worldsUp to 6 worlds, auto-linked with portals you step through — or win by reaching one.
Enemy tiers 1–50From a grunt to a bullet-sponge apex — set exactly how tough each foe is.
Timers & escortsSurvive a countdown, race a clock, or defend an ally to win — tension built in.

Places

Where your game happens

One line picks the place — and there are 44 of them. Beaches, cities, moons and swamps to run across… and nine buildings you walk right into, room by room. See them all on the games shelf →

Places you can walk into
World: castle
Nine buildings with real rooms — furniture on the floor, people already in them, and a door that will not open until you find its key.
Towns & cities
World: city at night
Streets and blocks that go on forever: noon traffic, neon rain, a slum under a metal sky, a district somebody bombed.
Woods, fields & shores
World: forest
The green half of the world — trees to hide behind, flower fields, blossom, sand, and a lagoon full of coral.
Cold & high
World: snow
White ground and thin air: snow, ice, windy green cliffs, and grey moon dust with the stars still out.
Hot & harsh
World: volcano
Places that do not want you there — sun, red canyons, cracked ground, rivers of fire and mountains of scrap.
Strange & magic
World: candy land
Worlds that stopped obeying the rules: glowing crystal, giant mushrooms, frosting hills, a graveyard at midnight.
Indoors & machines
World: reactor
A roof over your head — catwalks over glowing pits, a white lab, a tower floor, torch-lit stone the sun never finds.

The nine you can walk into

These ones are not a picture around you — they are a building. The engine draws a floor plan, hangs the doors, puts the furniture in and fills the rooms with people, and then your story happens inside it.

World: mansionA whole house: front hall, kitchen, living room, bedrooms, a study, a cellar, a garage and a garden. Or write house.
World: castleGatehouse, courtyard, great hall, throne room, armoury, chapel, kitchens — and the dungeon cells far below. Or write palace, or κάστρο.
World: schoolMain lobby, locker halls, classrooms, a science lab, an art room, a gym, a library, a cafeteria and the playground.
World: pizza shopShop floor, till, prep kitchen, stockroom, loading bay and a food court. Write shop, bakery, market or restaurant too.
World: officeReception, open plan, meeting rooms, a boardroom, a kitchenette, the archive — and a server room behind a keycard.
World: haunted houseAn old hotel that never checked out: grand foyer, ballroom, nursery, cellar, room 13 and a secret passage. Or write hotel.
World: hospitalReception, waiting room, wards, an operating theatre, a pharmacy store, a lab, the morgue and a sealed quarantine.
World: prisonFront gate, cell blocks, guard posts, the mess hall, the exercise yard and the warden’s office watching all of it.
World: cryptStone chambers under the ground — cells, a bone chamber, a candle chapel, a trap hall and a treasury. Or write dungeon.

A brand-new layout every time
The rooms are planned fresh the moment the game loads. Play your game twice and the way through is different — your story still works, because you name rooms, not corners.
Somebody already lives there
Guards, cooks, pupils, nurses, shoppers — they walk about and talk on their own. So write only the characters your story actually needs.
One door wants a key
Most buildings lock one to three doors and hide the keys that open them in rooms inside. A school always locks exactly one; a house, a shop or an office sometimes locks none at all — so never make finding a key the whole story. Walk into a locked door and it tells you what it wants. Do not write a key of your own — the building already made one, and in the office, the hospital and the prison it is a keycard.

Say which room with at:

Put a room name after at: and that is where the person or the thing will be. Write it on the Character line, or on its own line underneath. Name a room and the building is planned to have it — every room word each building knows is listed in the 🌎 Worlds part of the reference below.

World "haunted house":
  Character "Ghost" at: ballroom
    say Nobody has danced here in a hundred years…
  Character "Caretaker":
    at: grand foyer
    say Mind the cellar. And the attic. And room 13.
  item 🕯️ candle at: library

Win when: player has candle
