App Game Kit
The App Game Kit (AGK) is a piece of cross-platform games development software developed by The Game Creators (TGC).[1]
Cross Platform Development
One of the key features of the AGK is that code is written once and then compiled for a multiple platforms without needing to make any changes to the source code. AGK currently supports compilation for iOS, Mac OS X, Samsung Bada, Windows OS and MeeGo.
AGK Script
Software produced with the App Game Kit is written in a language called AGK Script. This language has powerful inbuild commands including commands for 2D graphics, physics and networking. The commands make use of the platforms' native functions to improve performance. They are also designed to enhance code readability.[2] The AGK Script commands have extensive online documentation.
AGK Tiers
The AGK has two tiers. Tier 1 is a BASIC dialect that is run via an interpreter. Tier two is a set of C++ libraries that can be called from the platform's native SDKs.
IDE
The AGK comes with an Integrated Design Environment (IDE) based on the Code::Blocks IDE for writing AGK scripts. One key feature of the IDE is it's ability to broadcast compiled programs to other devices for testing.
Pricing
The standard price for AGK is $111.99. However companies with turnover greater than $100,000 have to pay $999 per computer.
