Construct 3 alternative: a game from a sentence, not an event sheet.
Construct 3 is a polished browser-based 2D editor. Evonx also runs in the browser, but you describe the game and AI builds it. Here is a fair comparison — and when Construct is the right tool.

When Construct 3 is the better choice
Choose Construct if you want precise, hands-on control of 2D logic, enjoy building with events and behaviors, teach game logic in class, or need desktop and app-store exports. Its browser editor, built-in behaviors and examples make it a strong 2D tool.
When Evonx is the better choice
Choose Evonx if you want to skip the editor and describe the game: levels, rules, art and 3D characters are generated, and every change is a sentence. It is built for store-style mobile genres and gives you a TypeScript + Phaser project you own.
Building and preview are free on Starter; publishing is on Plus and Pro. Evonx does not produce App Store or Google Play packages.
