Hello

I am an indie developer and have been working with AppGameKit for the last couple of years for small projects and I absolutely love the product, I came from AMOS, so this little Gem is 2nd nature and the one and only for me.

Next on the bucket list is VR headset (maybe for xmas) and the new bundles thats coming out for it, Sounds bundle, VR, Visual Editor etc

Wow - you have come a long way - keep up the awseome work TGC

Lets make 2018 a very special one for getting games onto the market place

Thanks

Does anyone like the old favourites then, Amiga, Spectrum etc. just curious if an emulator could be created in AGK. Or am I just going to be getting myself into a copyright IP mess

I loved the Spectrum editor - so making a look and feel editor similar to it, and indeed having the spectrum commands to create good old retro games always liked the thought of bringing that
back to life - similar with Amiga's AMOS - to making the good old retro games come back to life in the 21st century lol

Video Game EMULATION is covered under "fair use".

Quote: "According to all legal precedents, emulation is legal within the United States."


That is why MAME and Retro Uprising have flourished rather than being shut down.

As long as it is 'not-for-profit' then you should be okay, as video game emulation is the only way to preserve games that were originally released on hardware that is no longer being produced.

I might be over adventuring myself, but games could become nice to have option modes, either 2D / Isometric / 3D / Virtual all built into one.

Now that is a really good idea!!(will take long time to develop) but I think people will like it as to been given a choice on how to play

i have decided to create a 3D game engine within itself

- Object creator
- Texture modeller
- Terrain modeller
- Movements (player / enemy)
- Fades / 3D particles and such like
- AI
- Title screen designer
- Export to AppGameKit (which will wriite all the AppGameKit code for the game you create with it)

plus much more

Coming Autumn 2018

Also I feel - forgive me if im incorrect, but to become a good programmer - is to learn ourselves, by using the F1 button

not - i need something fixing and we provide the solutions- never learn anything if others do things for others

At work - i always get, this and that is not working.... I ask to reboot... It works after that.

Its all about learning... So before posting for a quick fix -press the F1

I have seen so many repetitive similar queries - all can be resolved by the help feature.
