Still worth making games using A6 c-script ? - 05/10/09 15:10
Hello,
I have many games to make within the next year or 18months. I am compentent using c-script and it has taken a while to come this far.
As they may take a couple of years to make I am wondering if they will still be playable on the PC's and systems that people own.
In 2 years time will games using c-script still work? I am assuming they will considering there are old pc games which still function on Vista and XP. Will the version of direct x change so not to be compatible with A6?
Forgive my ignorance but I need to take these things into consideration. Better to ask now than go ahead and have nothing to show at the end.
The format of my games means that they will not go out of fashion or date for some time once completed. I have many game templates using c-script. Would lite-c be the better choice? That would of course mean using up more time to learn lite-c and the code needed for new templates.
I would appreciate any input on this matter.
