The Game Creators have just announced that they have released their AppGameKit software for the Raspberry Pi free-of-charge.
CEO Lee Bamber said:
“It’s the full AppGameKit BASIC, which has the IDE, can compile and broadcast (includes broadcasting to iOS and Android devices that have the player app on them) and allows access to the GPIO pins so you can code input and output to external add-ons (LEDs, devices etc).”
According to the blurb on their website, you create “games using AppGameKit’s powerful & easy to code syntax, combined with additional features for the Raspberry Pi such as reading & writing to the digital GPIO pins”.
Sounds very interesting, and anything which gives more options for programming on the Pi can only be a good thing!
No bid deal, but up until now there is no installation instructions. But CBJ
said he would create one. I do not fance playing around with an install
so I’ll wait – but it obviously can be used by trying it out.
