Mobile Game Engine

Recently, I did a search about game engine for developing mobile game.
Found some very useful websites and resources.
Let me share them here.

Many tutorials about iPhone & Android game development. It seems iPhone game development is hoter, using a popular game engine cocos2d-iPhone

Unity3d, using Unity3d to make 2d games with lots of popular plugins (Orthello, iTween, A*Pathfinding)

When I'm checking a image tool I found below, I found some other game engines, hope them have some use to you.

TexturePacker

Others:

• Cocos2d iPhone - iPhone
• Corona(TM) SDK - Cross-platform game development framework
• Gideros - Cross platform game development framework
• Sparrow - iPhone
• LibGDX - Java (Android + Desktop)
• LimeJS - Javascript / HTML5 framework
• Ogre with CEGUI - 3D gaming framework and GUI
• Moai - Multiplatform gaming framework

I'm still thinking about which one is better for me, Unity3d is powerful and can deploy to many platforms.

cocos2d-iPhone seems better for iPhone app development.

if you have any idea, just feel free to leave your comment.

Thanks.

Mouse Gestures (Linux & Windwos)

These days I found something interesting, maybe lots of guys had known that "Gesture".

For Linux, "Easystroke" is popular.
For Windows, I recommend "StrokesPlus".

Both of them are very conveniently like doing browser Back or Forward, Close Program.

Just try it.

Thanks.

Google app engine - free website hosting

I have tried google app engine, one of the best thing I can say is it absolutely free with limit volume and cup speed, but it enough for beginner or beginning a small personal business, like social mobile game back-ends data transformation, or a personal hobby CMS website (you can try Vosao).

I have success to deploy my sample website to appspot.com.
