Scrolling Game Development Kit 1.4.0 Released

Posted by simoniker on from the shadow-of-the-beast-parallax dept.

BlueMonk writes "Hoping that 2D gaming is not dead yet, version 1.4.0 of the Scrolling Game Development Kit for Windows was released at the weekend. It helps beginners as well as more experienced developers create 2D scrolling games. Take a look at some of the games created with the kit while you're at it." It's great to see homebrew 2D game construction supported like this.

    Every time a kit like this is available, we get little gems from people who wouldn't otherwise have the time to learn the skills the kit lets you get away with not knowing - but with them we get hundreds of nearly-identical, pointless games to wade through to get to them.

    Remember pinball construction set?
