Turn your game idea into a first playable

Describe it in ordinary language, review the design, and play it inside Avori. Then keep building there or move into Unity, Godot, or Unreal.

Avori Core is $0. Windows now, macOS coming soon.

Choose the starting point that matches your game

You do not need an existing engine project to start. Unity, Godot, and Unreal remain optional destinations and integrations that are installed separately from Avori.

01 No engine required

Build inside Avori

Describe a 2D or 3D idea, check the plan for a small first version, and build a version you can play directly in Avori. Keep revising it there or move it into an engine later.

  • Starts from an idea, not a codebase
  • Uses your trial credits or Avori Balance
  • Creates a first playable, not a finished commercial game
02 Engine installed separately

Start a new game in an engine

Choose an installed Unity, Godot, or Unreal version and a project location. Avori shows the project-creation plan before it creates files or opens the editor.

  • Start with an ordinary-language game idea
  • Review the first-playable scope before creation
  • Build through supported native engine actions
03 Bring your current work

Connect an existing project

Select a Unity, Godot, or Unreal project you already have. Avori first reads your project and answers questions; it only changes files after you say yes.

  • See when Avori can read your project and when it can make changes
  • Review proposed changes before they run
  • Verify the result and keep a rollback path

Avori Core is $0 software. Start with 60 one-time trial credits. Continue with prepaid Avori Balance for supported Avori-hosted models. Avori never charges or changes funding automatically unless you turn on auto-reload. Understand model funding.

The free GDD Mapper sorts your own sentences into the requirement fields Avori tracks, such as core loop, enemies, and win and lose conditions. It runs in your browser and uploads nothing.

Built for the real complexity of game dev

Help grounded in your project

Avori uses the project structure, selected files, editor context, rules, and game design that are available for the current workflow to explain, plan, write, and debug C#, GDScript, and C++. Ask questions before allowing any project change.

Review changes before they run

Describe the result you want and Avori proposes the work. Review it, approve it, watch it run, and check the result. Engine coverage and recovery options differ by workflow, so keep normal version-control discipline for production work.

Design intent in every task

Add a PDF, DOCX, Markdown, or text design document and Avori brings the relevant passages into the task. A reviewed art direction keeps characters, worlds, and interface consistent, using named games only as principle references without copying their characters, maps, interface, or assets.

Works in your engine and editor

Unity, Godot 4, Unreal Engine 5.7 on Windows, VS Code, Visual Studio 2022, and JetBrains Rider. Engine and IDE support is qualified independently.

Free to start

Common questions

Avori is a local-first game development app. You can start a first playable inside Avori, start a new Unity, Godot, or Unreal project, or connect an existing project. Avori helps turn an ordinary-language idea into a reviewable design and proposed work. Core work stays on your computer. If you explicitly enable Pro cloud continuity or a Cloud Loop, Avori stores or processes only the cloud data needed for that feature under the published retention controls. Your content is not used for training. Avori was previously called Aura.

Core project files, indexes, and project memory are stored on your computer. When you ask a model for help, the necessary request context goes to the model provider you selected. If you explicitly enable Pro cloud continuity or a Cloud Loop, Avori stores or processes the cloud data required for that feature under the published controls. Your content is not used for training. Read our full security page.

Start with 60 one-time trial credits. Trial credits pay for AI work. A simple request may use one credit, while images and multi-step work may use more. Credits pay for the AI work Avori runs. After that, continue with prepaid Avori Balance for supported Avori-hosted models. Pro adds the option to use your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Moonshot/Kimi key, and your provider bills that usage directly. Avori never silently switches a request made with your own key to paid Avori funding.

Unity 2020.3 LTS or newer, Godot 4.2 or newer, Unreal Engine 5.7 on Windows, VS Code 1.75 or newer, Visual Studio 2022, and JetBrains Rider 2023.1 or newer, on Core, Pro, and Studio. Install the engines and editors you want separately; Avori installs its own integration files. See the full system requirements.

Avori Core is $0 software with unlimited local projects and GDDs. Start with 60 one-time trial credits, with no card required. Continue with prepaid Avori Balance for supported Avori-hosted models. Using your own AI provider key is available with Pro, and your provider bills that usage directly.
