What makes Gideros Studio a unique mobile development platform?
Mobile development platforms are maturing at an incredible speed. What we have been talking about 6 months ago in terms of features and services have already become outdated. Frameworks are becoming more integrated, they support more platforms and even extend themselves beyond mobile, through TVs and gaming consoles. Developers of Gideros Studio are also coming from the "development" world, and we believe that we have experience in understanding what a developer asks for. Therefore our main focus has always been the areas developer touches, e.g IDE, SDK, game mechanics, physics, sound and such. We've been asked numerous times the reasons to switch to an easier, free-to-use Gideros Studio, and we've collected several reasons here:
No cost: You don't have to pay anything for Gideros Studio. Grab your copy here. No questions asked.
Fast testing on device: You can test your application on a real device in less than 1 second over Wi-Fi or 3G! This greatly enhances your programming effectiveness, and lets you publish your game with ease.
Extensible with plugins: Starting from beta7, Gideros Studio includes iOS plugin support. Either using the plugins provided, or with the ones you create yourself, you can extend Gideros infinitely. No more "we do not support this", or "it's in our roadmap" replines. Android plugins will be here shortly. Stay tuned.
Complete SDK: Gideros Studio comes with an SDK with more than 480 API functions, suitable for any kind of game, application and e-book programming.
Full-featured IDE: SDK cannot be complete without a compatible IDE, so we developed a simple yet powerful development environment for mobile app developers.
Object oriented: We developed our API with OO paradigm in mind. Your objects have identity, state and operations, which greatly improves your coding efficiency.
Support for iOS & Android: Gideros Studio runs on worlds's top smartphone operating systems. You only develop your application, and it will directly run on both platforms.
Growing community: There's a nice, lively community around Gideros Studio in our forum and Wiki. So why don't you join, and say hi to others?
