App Game Kit 2 is an easy, instant game development engine, ideal for Beginners, Hobbyists & Indie developers. Now anyone can easily and quickly code and build apps for multiple platforms using AGKs BASIC scripting system. With just a few commands you can have demos/games up and running on mobile devices. Bob Duffy, Developer Relations Intel Corporation, said “AGK is a great cross platform development tool. It allows developers to quickly optimize and compile apps.”
Games can be developed and instantly deployed to your chosen mobile devices for rapid prototyping. AGK does all the heavy lifting for you - making it easy to code, compile and then export apps to each platform. All you need to focus on is your game/app idea. It's that simple!
AGK also caters for more seasoned developers, allowing you to use the AGK C++ libraries and benefit from all the features of AGKs core game engine. A great example of this is Echoes+ developed by Binary Zoo.
