Hi,

We're preparing a big update to the main AppGameKit web site and would like to include new testimonials from AGK2 users.

If you'd be happy to give us a quote to use then please list it in this thread.

I have taken the best ones and edit some of them. Are you all OK with these to be used by us on the web site and in promotional materials?;

"I searched a long time to find the perfect engine for coding 2D games - AppGameKit is the #1"
Easter Bunny

"AGK2 is by far the single best development software I have found for app game development."
Caps On!

"AGK2 is powerful, flexible and fun. Impressive results are quickly achieved and you can produce professional applications in a short time."
Jammy

"AGK2 is fun, easy to use and gives you a sense of achievement when you deploy on various platforms."
Scotty1973

"With AppGameKit V2 in front of you and the fantastic TGC Community behind you, the possibilities are endless."
Tone Dialer

"Highly recommended for the Indie Games developer!"
CJB

"AGK V2 is flexible and versatile, allowing a lot of creative freedom without being too difficult."
29 Games

"After a few hours of using AGK2 I was broadcasting my coded apps to my Android tablet and my phone."
yamyam

"AGK, the easiest language a student can learn"
Daniel Foreman

"AGK is a great cross platform development tool. It allows developers to quickly optimize and compile apps."
Bob Duffy, Developer Relations Intel Corporation

"AGK is a great platform to make games. Not only is it fast to get your ideas up and running, you can also run them on multiple devices"
DVader

"AGK lets you build a project up from scratch in no time, while still giving you all the power you need to shape your true ideas."
Swissolo

Cheers,

Rick

"AGK is the single best mobile game engine I have found"

"AGK is amazing"

"I looked for a long time to find the perfect engine for coding 2d games. AppGameKit is no.1"

"AGK let's you code and test games incredibly fast, meaning you can focus more on important aspects such as design and graphics"



Edit: Is this the sort of thing you want?
I give AppGameKit 5 stars if you're planning on putting stars with the quotes (like this?)
I'll edit back with more when I think of them.

If you'd like me to address certain aspects of AppGameKit, I'd be happy to do it.
You can quote be as "Steven" from "Audacia Games"

I have used TGC products for more than a decade. They have, and continue to be, my favorite software company to use for game development. Their product, AppGameKit 2, is by far,the single best development software I have found, for app game development.

If you are old enaugh to miss the good old C64/Atari/Amiga feeling, of fast gamemaking, get AGK. It makes making games fun and easy again.

If you are too young to know what I'm talking about, get it, to get it.

"Before AppGameKit I had very little coding knowledge. With the ease of use, excellent documentation, and extremely helpful community, teaching myself to code was both a pleasure and very very satisfying. This has enabled me to develop and release multiple applications on both Google Play and the App Store, one of which is approaching the 100,000 download mark. Dan - Funich Productions"

Quote: ""We needed a programming language that was easy to learn and easy to deploy to many devices. Having tried a few of the “Game maker programs “ I found them easy to use but very restrictive, and some where very expensive.
Then we came across AppGameKit (App Game Kit) from a company called TGC the game creators
Having downloaded the demo version, after a few hours I was broadcasting to my android tablet and my phone what I had written.""

"One source code, many platforms! When I was approached to develop an industry certified course for App Game Kit v1 I jumped at the chance. We've opened up so many platforms to kids across the globe. The language is so easy to teach it's a joy to work with.

AGK v2 sets the stage for something much more exciting, with the ability to go beyond simple 2D indie apps and games! With the power of 3D, more advanced sensors, XBOX 360 controller support, advanced shader technology, and even more. We can for the first time blur the lines between indie development and big studio production. Mobile gaming is a huge market with so many opportunities. I can't wait to see future students play in the big boy sandbox."

Even back when AppGameKit V1 was first released, I had a functional side scrolling shooter prototyped in under a week!
AGK is a great platform to make games. Not only is it fast to get your ideas up and running, you can also run them on multiple devices!
AGK is so good, I had a simple Flappy Birds clone made in under 30 minutes!

Take your pick, all are true and I can honestly say AppGameKit is a great product!

Yep, those edits are fine, the statement remains true
You might want to fix the capitalisation though

Unlike so many other development languages out there, AppGameKit is extremely intuitive. No matter how skilled of a programmer you are, AppGameKit lets you build a project up from scratch in no time, while still giving you all the power you need to shape your true ideas.

This is my quote :
"It's 4 years i use AppGameKit as 2D engine with C++ and OBJ C, and even if i tested all the others engine on the net, for me this is the best choice. AppGameKit V2 is the best investment to start your coding job with low price and big results!!"

Please correct my english if needed

I won $20000 in an Intel competition for a game demo I quickly developed using AppGameKit and now I am a full time games developer. I have tried many development kits but AppGameKit is my tool of choice.

A coding language that costs less than £60 GBP ($100 USD) has given me the power to win a Blackberry Playbook, Lenovo 27" All-in-One PC, Intel Ultrabook, Realsense Camera, and $1000 hard cash in coding competitions.
