There is no question that being able to design game scenes using a visual editor can be a terrific time saver. The CocosBuilder project aims to allow you to create interactive game scenes using the Cocos2D engine without needing to write any code. It is also free (and hopefully stays that way!).
The project has come a long way recently now supporting sprite sheets, and while still in the early stages it is looking like a very good tool. You can download it and see for yourself.
Check out the CocosBuilder webpage here with the latest download and instructions (not that it needs much instruction).
A great tool for anyone who wants to use Cocos2D, but doesn’t want to have to lay everything out by hand. The author is looking for feedback so be sure to let him know what you think of it, and encourage him to keep it up with what looks like a great project!
