Hi boys, i think Apple is starting to code something similar to all the 3rd part engines.

LOOK HERE

What do you think about this?
What happen to AppGameKit for iOS if they do a sprite manager?


Long life to Steve!

I guess for developers who are only interested in developing for iOS, Apple's Sprite Kit may be a viable option. However, for cross-platform development AppGameKit and related frameworks will remain the only sensible choice. I haven't looked into Sprite Kit at all to compare the complexity to AppGameKit or Cocos2dx.

Well, in fact, i added this news for developer like me, that only work with Apple.
I think TCG can lose much users if it does the same things.
Don't you think is possible?

Long life to Steve!

wait wait wait ... i see this everywhere...

first google... then Apple... now microsoft with XboxOne...
i dont think they will ever get any good then just another SDK for dummies.. if they do ... then its the end for all Game/ App Kits ...
since once each Brand will have its own Engine to play with ... no one can possible be better then the device developers.. lets revolt!

But none of the engines are multiplatform, meaning you will limit yourself to one platform. AppGameKit provides a solution for that, so even though it dosn't use 100% of the capability of one platform, it can use half of it on all
