Ok, I am intending to purchase AppGameKit in the next day or two. Is there any reason to hold off until 107 is released or is that a free upgrade? I am really hoping that a debugger will appear soon along with some nice 2D drawing commands. I'm about 20% into converting a ZX Spectrum game I wrote using Tier1 but have been thinking maybe about starting again in Tier2. This is a screening so far, not much but I'm getting there lol..

No need to wait for 1.07. From what we know, it is intended to be free. Besides, think of it! You could already ship your game to mobile devices

Ahhh, I think I will buy it then, I'm desperate to see how it'll run on my Playbook lol.
I think I may knock up a simple sprite editor that I can use on the PB while I'm out and about too,

EDIT: Has anyone heard any more details about the debugger? I hate using log files,

Polomint, go buy it now!
And use Tier2, you will have access to the Visual Studio debugger if you develop on Windows.

That's what I did on my android device.

The only problem is that (to me) I cannot compile playbook project... I have some path problems which I have completely no idea how to solve .

Once I purchase AppGameKit, I will need to get Tier2 compiling for the PB. Once I've got it working (if I've got it working lol), then I may make up some small guide. If I can remember the steps..

Looking at that screen shot, I'd be tempted to use those Speccy graphics direct in AppGameKit, or you could have them as an option possibly. Looking nice and retro!
