Clickteam Fusion 2.5 is a visual development tool for creating 2D games and applications. Its Event Editor represents logic as conditions and actions in a grid, letting users define behavior without entering code. The Frame Editor is used to position objects, while a graphics editor, library graphics, and support for common image formats help with visual work. Box2D physics is integrated into movement properties for most objects. Listed export targets include Windows, HTML5, Flash, iOS, Android/OUYA, and XNA, though some require optional modules. The free edition supports creating and publishing HTML5 games and apps without royalties, but its HTML5 export is limited. The free edition page lists Windows 10, 8.x, 7, Vista, or XP Service Pack 3 as system requirements and says an internet connection is needed for installation, updates, and downloads. The free edition includes access to community forums and live chat support. Paid options include a PC standard edition at $99.99 USD per once and a PC developer edition at $399.99 USD per once.
