Abstract
The present invention provides a video game development platform. More specifically, aspects of the invention relate to components of applications such as video games including the source code, graphics, sounds, and animations as well as a market place where any of the above are traded for currency, tokens, credits, or given to other people. These components can then be combined, using game editing and creation tools, to make video games. Users can create and edit games, either of their own or based on other users' preexisting games, and can share their games with others. Game components may be bought, sold, traded, or otherwise distributed through an online marketplace.
