For my thesis, I’ve started to investigate some tools, and how suitable they are for rapid prototyping 2d games. My list currently covers:
- 2D Boy’s Rapid Prototyping Framework
- Cogaen / ACES
- Game Editor
- Game Maker
- PushButton Engine
- Torque Game Builder (Torque2d)
- 3D Packages, used for 2D prototyping (Unreal Development Kit, Unity, Virtools, Quest3D)
Although I’m writing my thesis in German, I guess I’ll find the time and post my resumes here. The good thing is, I don’t have to be that objective on my blog…so stay tuned
