As some of you may remember, we started this project to make a game development tool. During the years, the idea evolved from one form to another, sometimes the changes were significant, other times we threw away all the code and started anew.</p> <p>As a result of all these changes, we came to the end of the year 2018 without a tool, but with a clear understanding of what tool are we making.</p> <p>There are plenty of fine game development tools out there. Some of them are even open source. We spent plenty of time trying them, and some are quite good.</p> <p>We can't, and we don't want to compete with them. Our targets are maximal accessibility and simplicity. Our goal is to make a tool suitable for teaching children, but powerful enough to be used for prototyping. To use any powerful development tool, you need a PC or a laptop. We want to make the toolset, that can be used anywhere. We already made some steps in this direction, and we will continue this course.</p> <p>So, we're beginning a new year without precise plans, but with clear knowledge of our goal instead. Let's wait and see if this approach works better.</p> <p>Happy New Year to all of you! See you soon!</p> <p class="subheader">Category: <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/category/news.html">News</a> </p> </article> </div> <!-- End Main Content --> <!-- Sidebar --> <aside class="large-3 columns"> <!--k <h5 class="sidebar-title">Site</h5> <ul class="side-nav"> <li><a href="http://opengamestudio.org/archives.html">Archives</a> <li><a href="http://opengamestudio.org/tags.html">Tags</a> <li><a href="http://opengamestudio.org/feeds/all.atom.xml" rel="alternate">Atom feed</a></li> </ul> <h5 class="sidebar-title">Categories</h5> <ul class="side-nav"> <li><a href="http://opengamestudio.org/category/news.html">News</a></li> </ul> --> <h5 class="sidebar-title">Ads</h5> <script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script> <!-- ogs2 --> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-4473792248813084" data-ad-slot="9024247127" data-ad-format="auto"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script> </aside> <!-- End Sidebar --> </div> <!-- End Main Content and Sidebar --> <!-- Footer --> <footer class="row"> <div class="large-12 columns"> <hr /> <div class="row"> <div class="large-7 columns"> <p>Proudly powered by <a href="http://getpelican.com">Pelican</a>, which takes great advantage of <a href="http://python.org">Python</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-3773114-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
