Well, hello to all. i take a look into PlayBasic and discovered that it is familiar to AMOs, the basic i used on my Amiga!
Expect more posts from me, unfortunately im afrait it will be more like "help me, help me.." :) but this part of forum is for that, isnt it?! heheh

Im still on Demo version, but if i find it "suitable" for me, ill buy it!

Thats all for this first post....

...eh i almost forgot....

I mentioned Amiga....

....good old Amiga....

New Amiga will need a good development application for games...
Any chance of porting PlayBasic to Amiga OS?
There were plenty of AMOS programmers and this will be a huge PUSH for them and Amiga.

Sorry for offtopic, Admin, move this post/replay if you think this is not place for it!

....im off..

thanx for listening/"reading"

We've thought about retargeting PB programs previously and it's something that I'd like also.    Ideally, as it'd open up the project a lot more if users could  build / retarget builds to different platforms.  We're mostly interested in mobile technologies though.   But _If_ it proves possible for or those, then the same principle  could be used for pretty much any platform.

 hi there.  i used to program in amos back in early 90's. i loved it then, but pc's took over and i stopped using amos on my amiga. i was disappointed.
 6 months ago i searched around for another program and found playbasic. i myself are very happy with playbasic, and i can now finally make my game.
 amos was limited to no. of colours, and everything seemed very manual for your game creation. playbasic has a lot of nice features to make coding easier, i found.
  setting up was a little confusing in playbasic at first, but it made sense later on. it offers building maps with levels, and worlds, or a combination of both. the camera feature is very timesaving too. it takes care of sprites, drawing order and everything. in playbasic itself, the help section has a lot of examples, and there are plenty of example code as well.
  i am enjoying my game creation and i hope you will too. :lol:

It's easy to start a program, but harder to finish it...

I think that means i am getting old and get side tracked too easy.

Hi.
My story is exactly the same, my first computer was an Amiga, but I had to give it up for a PC because of peer pressure. I loved AMOS, and went through Klik'n'Play, Multimedia Fusion, (what a train-wreck!) and Dark Basic before I found PlayBasic. Now I'm trying to replicate what I did in AMOS ten years ago! I miss the AMOS "VUMeter" command, which let your characters dance to the beat of the music. How about it, Kevin??
