Althirius IDE

Project Homepage

This project will bring easy 2D games development using cross-platform game engine. The engine will feature Pascal programming interface,GUI system and 3D accelerated OpenGL graphics. It will be simple alternative to PyGame and will include sharing platform . More information about game engine: ZenGL - Game Engine website.

Cross-platform

The Althirius IDE will be available for Windows® and Linux. MacOS port is not planned yet,but since this software will be open-source and some volunteer could easily compile it using Lazarus. Users will easily compile games on all supported OS.

Portal

Create,Share and Collab!

Portal or sharing platform will be a wiki or forum page where users can do collaborations,find and write tutorials,share they own finished games and upload game resources.

Involves Everybody

Al thought game programming might be suitable for 12+ years kids the youngest kids will not be left behind. All games requires not only programming part,but and making game resources which makes the biggest part of the game. Younger kids could help to older kids in games development by making music,SFX,drawing objects and backgrounds. This will motivate kids to organize collaborations and work in teams.
