Old post, but thought I would share my thoughts.
I came over from using Construct 2/3, game making software. Although I have learned a lot about coding in my short three years with these, I am no coder at all!
I started doing tutorials with Bolt. For weeks I struggled! I was left so disheartened... Then I looked at a few tutorials from Playmaker. I bought it many years ago but didn't touch it. That is when I ended up choosing Construct. So it was still new to me really.
Playmaker comes so naturally to me! It is so quick to learn. I am over the moon that it is this simple - and yet so powerful and has so many addons for assets too!
Thanks

I hope this helps someone!
