Desktop app for game dev with AI.
| Platform | Download |
|---|---|
| macOS (Apple Silicon) | Genex.dmg |
| Linux (x64) | .deb, .rpm or .zip from the latest release. The .deb and .rpm add the Genex package repository, so your system's updates (Software Updater, apt, dnf) bring every later version |
| Windows (x64), preview | Genex-Setup.exe. Not signed yet: if Windows warns, choose More info, then Run anyway |
Genex is early: expect rough edges, and tell us about them in issues.
→ Use your Claude Code or ChatGPT subscription
→ Or run local models
→ Multi-agent game dev: mix Opus and GPT models across the main agent, workers and reviewers
→ Make 3D assets locally with the Blender plugin
→ Meshy, Tripo, ElevenLabs and more through the Genex tools router
→ Export anywhere, or publish to the web
→ Build in Unreal or Godot on your Mac with their plugins
→ Native C++ games soon
Tip
Have a tool your games need? Build a plugin and put it in the Genex Marketplace for everyone.
You need macOS on Apple Silicon, Git and Node 24.
git clone https://github.com/genex-games/genex-desktop.git
cd genex-desktop
nvm install && nvm use # Node 24, from .nvmrc
npm ci
npm run studio:dev -- start --profile first-run --fixture app-basicsThe fixture runs the app with scripted models and sample games, so it needs no account. Read CONTRIBUTING.md before you open a pull request; coding agents start at AGENTS.md.
Plugins give Genex's agents new tools: an asset generator, an engine bridge, a service your game talks to. The Blender and Genex tools that ship with the app are plugins too. From a Genex checkout:
npm run plugin:new -- my-plugin --out ~/studio-plugins # scaffold it from the example
npm run plugin:doctor -- ~/studio-plugins/my-plugin # check it the way Genex will- Try it: in the app, Plugins → Add → Load local plugin… and pick the folder.
- Share it: push it to a public GitHub repository and publish a release for each version. Anyone can install it from there with Plugins → Add → Install from GitHub….
- List it: open a pull request to genex-plugins. A maintainer reviews it, and it appears in every Genex app's Marketplace.
The plugin guide covers tools, panels, settings and accounts.
- Product overview: what the app does, with a page per feature
- Developer field guide: run commands and where data lives
- Release operations: packaging, signing and publishing a release
Free code signing provided by SignPath.io, certificate by SignPath Foundation.
Windows builds are signed only when GitHub Actions builds them from this repository's source,
and a maintainer approves each release before it is signed.
Until that signing is in place, Windows builds ship unsigned as a preview; every release lists
each file's SHA-256 in SHA256SUMS.
