CreativeMode
CreativeMode is a no-code, AI-powered platform that lets Minecraft players build their own mods by describing what they want in plain English. It generates ready-to-play mobs, items, blocks, weapons and structures for both Java and Bedrock editions, then lets creators publish, share and compete with them. Founded in 2024 by three ex-Crusoe engineers and part of Y Combinator's Summer 2024 batch, CreativeMode says players have made more than 450,000 mods on the platform.
Manticore Games Inc.
Manticore Games is a San Mateo game studio behind Core, a free platform that lets people build, share, and play online multiplayer games without deep art or coding skills. Founded in 2016 by industry veterans Frederic Descamps and Jordan Maynard, the company built accessible creation tools on top of Unreal Engine and raised roughly $164M from backers including Epic Games, Benchmark, and SoftBank's Vision Fund 2 to power what it calls a 'games multiverse.'
Roblox
Roblox is an online platform and game-creation system where users build, publish, and play 3D experiences made by other users. Rather than producing its own games, Roblox provides the engine (Roblox Studio), hosting, social layer, and a virtual currency (Robux) that lets a global community of creators turn ideas into playable worlds - and, increasingly, into income. With roughly 132 million daily active users and more than $1 billion paid out to creators in a single year, it has become one of the largest user-generated entertainment platforms in the world.
LILA Games
LILA Games is a Bengaluru-based mobile game studio founded in 2020 and building Project Black, an ambitious free-to-play extraction shooter for mobile. Backed by a $10M Series A from Rainfall, KRAFTON, Sequoia, BITKRAFT, and Galaxy Interactive, the team is led by former SEGA and FunPlus operators determined to prove India can ship a globally competitive shooter.
