Inside Story
The guys at have been developing games forever. It is excellent news that they have packaged up all those man years worth of code into such a way that allows other developers to reap the benefits off their hardwork. Great best selling games like Li-Nuggz, Blazar and were written and made available for the aforementioned platforms using a solid technology base which has now been productised as EDGE. I am not talking about bleeding EDGE technology here! It is seriously leading EDGE I remember having a chat with Dan Hoffman, CEO of Element Interactive when the idea was put together a while back; the thought that came into my mind during the conversation was that it was about time someone created a tool that not only worked but was priced correctly so that it doesnt alienate all those creative developers out there from creating games. When it comes down to it, the price really matters. I think that the pricing of best mobile development library out there today.
