Hi, I'm proud to release V1.00 of the Grey Alien BlitzMax Game Framework that is already in use by many hobbyists and professionals. I have had nothing but positive feedback about the product and the quality of my customer service. Give the mini-game demo a whirl today and find out what all the fuss is about:
http://www.greyaliengames.com/aotmg/aotmg040.zip (5.72Mb)
Find out more about the framework here: http://www.greyaliengames.com/framework/faq.html
Why do you need it? Well do you...
- want the fun of making games without boring research, technical problems and tons of interface code?
- want your game to run on a wide range of PCs using an ultra smooth timing routine?
- want your game to have the same functionality as professional commercial games?
- want to plug your code straight into an OOP environment with tons of ready-made Types?
Then get the Grey Alien BlizMax Game Framework!
Summary of features (in no particular order):
*********************************************************
The Game Framework (Windows only) is a collection of files that you can use to make a professional quality game. It also comes with an example mini-game called Attack of the Mutant Greys.
You can buy it for £29.95, €43.50 or $54.95 (please ask for prices in other currencies). This gives you a royalty free licence to use the code for freeware and commercial projects. You will receive updates as and when they become available. I may start charging a higher amount soon for commercial use so grab it while you can at this bargain price!
To buy it, please go here: http://www.greyaliengames.com/contact.php and use the Paypal donate button (this is my preferred method).
Or use Share-it! https://secure.shareit.com/shareit/checkout.html?PRODUCT[300072102]=1
If you are based in the U.K. and want to pay by cheque or postal order, please email me (my email address is in my blitz profile and on my website). If enough people want to pay via a different method, I'll look into it.
*********************************************************
Thanks to everyone on the forums who has offered advice and helped with testing. Also HUGE thanks to all my loyal customers for your continued support :-)
