Quote: This is why, at least Pro, needs rebranding to get away from "Authoring games has never been easier!" Authoring suggests "no programming" which is far away from the truth of Gamestudio development.
actually, that was the catch phrase why i first got it. maybe you have already grown out of the acknex shoes...?
No, and this is the problem. "Acknex shoes" are now big enough to accomodate professional developers, but the packaging still says "made for kids."
Indie developers who should be using A7 are skipping it for Torque just because they see that "made for kids" reputation, and dismiss the engine without seeing how it has grown, when it is actually a superior middleware engine (which it is, with its superior art path, excellent scripting language and ABT scene management, and 0 royalties).
