'''Torque 2D''', originally '''Torque Game Builder''', is a game engine designed for 2D games and based on the ''Torque Game Engine''.<ref name="gamasutra"/> It was first released in 2006, in a ''standard'' and a ''pro'' version, with the professional version including the [[source code]].<ref name="gamasutra">{{cite web|url=https://www.gamedeveloper.com/game-platforms/product-garagegames-releases-torque-game-builder|title=Product: GarageGames Releases Torque Game Builder|publisher=Gamasutra|last=Dobson|first=Jason|date=2006-06-21}}</ref> Torque 2D started as ''Torque Game Builder'' because the ultimate goal was to make it a game-making suite. It was used for instance to create the puzzle game ''[[And Yet It Moves]]'' (2009, Broken Rules, WiiWare) and dozens of other games. The latest "Torque game builder" release was 1.7.6 from December 2011.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.garagegames.com/community/forums/viewthread/129147|title=Torque 2D (TGB) 1.7.6 Released|last=Perry|first=Michael|work=Torque Game Builder|publisher=GarageGames|date=2011-12-16}}</ref> In 2012 a ''Torque 2D MIT'' edition was created as combination of the previous "Torque Game Builder" and iTorque 2d, an iOS fork.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.garagegames.com/community/blogs/view/22062|title=GarageGames is Proud to Announce Torque 2D MIT!|publisher=GarageGames|quote=Take Torque 2D, combine it with iTorque, add in Box 2D physics, several major enhancements and bug fixes, and make it open source.
