Would this be of any interest for the AmigaOS/MorphOS/AROS assuming of course it is compatible with one of our web browsers?

Wow, interesting link, I always dreamed of doing but I could not learn game programming. But I guess it will be a kit-game with very little creative freedom.

@TrevorDick

It would be for me, even if I'm really satisfied with Hollywood (now running Infinity!).

What concernes me the most, though, is the graphics part. Since I have no graphic capabilities I always relay on PD sprites, backgrounds etc.

How is Gamefroot doing on this department?

Regards

Great to see things like this where people can make their dreams come true ...
Contacted him directly to say the same thing.

@all

If there is anything needed to make this happen on Amiga OS in what I am writing with Polymorph then whomever gets to make this work is free to use anything I am writing for any of the Amiga browsers to work with this if any of it helps

@g0blin

I'm not really into games much these days. Have my hands full doing other things

However, from what little I do know is that this is a retro game engine platform player, complete with graphics, backgrounds, themes, scenery, music and sound effects to enable users to easily create their very own unique retro platform game.

Yes and, by the way, thank you for all your awesome work.

I'll take a deeper look into it. I'm developing my own technology but all this stuff can get handy for sure.
