definately clickable

Corona SDK is a android compiler that allows for very easy game / app making with almost no effort. It has its own physics engine and uses the dynamic very-easy-to-learn Lua language that GMod and many other games use.

I made this game with it and it was very easy, you can find the link to the github page about this app here: https://github.com/Tanashii/massive-octo-wallhack

There are a few plans, the first one is free and allows for app making and publishing it with ads or IAP

The rest of the plans are expensive as forget so nobody ever buys them, but they're there

I know that I'm going to get forgeted on because of this thread but I just wanted to tell you guys about this sdk :c

I need to pay $2,499 a year for email support?

600? Are you out of your mind? I can make a game with the Android SDK FOR FREE.

You can make games with this one for free too, easier because with lua, which is alot easier to understand than Java (atleast to a newcomer like me), look at the picture again

Yeah but they are charging extra for things that can be done for free.

Corona is a pretty great framework for quick prototyping, though I prefer LOVE since it gives me more control over the inner workings of my game.

As far as I can see, you can do everything you would need to do just using the framework for free. Everything else was most likely made for groups or businesses.

Yeah, LOVE gives more control over the game, like it doesn't have a forced physics engine, but it also can't build for android, or as far as I heard, it's pretty difficult
