With AppGameKit Studio, you can publish your games to multiple platforms, including Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and more. The game also offers a large community of developers, tutorials, and resources to help you get started.










- AppGameKit Studio is easy to learn and provides a powerful programming environment for both beginners and experienced developers, especially those familiar with BASIC.
- The software allows for rapid game development and deployment across multiple platforms, making it a versatile tool for creating games and applications.
- The IDE features a user-friendly interface, helpful built-in documentation, and a supportive community, which enhances the overall development experience.
- The lack of a built-in 3D scene editor and limited 3D support makes it challenging for developers looking to create 3D games.
- There are reports of bugs and stability issues, including crashes and performance problems, particularly on Linux systems.
- The developers have been criticized for slow bug fixes and a lack of communication regarding future updates and features, leading to concerns about the software's long-term viability.

7 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe graphics capabilities of AppGameKit are praised for their simplicity and focus on visual output, allowing users to bypass complex setup processes. The platform supports easy integration of custom graphics, music, and sound effects, with numerous tutorials available. While it excels in 2D graphics placement, users may need to rely on third-party tools for 3D graphics.
“What you get with this is the removal of all the details of OpenGL setup, allowing for 100% focus on the visuals.”
“There are plenty of tutorials and examples to get you going, and it is very easy to add your own graphics, music, and sound effects.”
“Great DLC; you can modify the parameters graphically, export the particles project, and use it with a small API in your AppGameKit Studio project. This DLC has two examples ready for compilation in AppGameKit that show how to use the API in your own projects.”
“What you get with this is the removal of all the details of OpenGL setup (or the other ones) with 100% focus on the visuals.”
“Even if my game is a poor example of the graphics that AGK is capable of (my game is a simple top-down view 2D game but this is what I wanted to build), AGK has allowed me to publish my game.”
“Its quite a powerful language still and will give great speeds, but for 3D you will have to use one of the many user-created placement editors.”
