Development question

[bardosy]

I just write a review article about WiA, and I saw the "powered by Delphi" logo in the Credits. It's true? The AGE engine is developed by Delphi? Can I wrote about it? It's very interesting!!!

[Rafiki]

The AGE engine is developed by AGEOD; Delphi is the programming language and development environment used

[bardosy]

I know what Delphi is (I worked with it for ten years.... ) but usually the game engines are developed in C++.

And it's not a secret, so I can mentioned it in my article?

[Rafiki]

Just wanted to make sure there weren't any misunderstandings

Sure you can write about it; I see no harm in that

BTW, make sure to give us a link to your review when it is published; we are always interested in hearing what people think of our games

I will, but it's not too usefull for you, because it will be in Hungarian...
But I will translate some key phrases from it for Matrix Games too.


But I'm amazed: this fantastic game engine developed in Delphi???
I really like programming in Delphi, but when I develop a game, I always change to C or C++... But now I have to reform my mind about it. Thanks for the info and the confirmation!

Yes, some people in the world still believe that some others languages than C/C++ can be used...

Triumph Studios write in Delphi too (Age of Wonders I and II, Overlord)

Hey Rafiki,
this is my article:
http://pcdome.hu/cikk/2303/birth_of_america_2_wars_in_america_pc

"It's a very nice game. Good to just watch the map and units..."
"...simulate the history very realistically..."
"The noises and music are not so good as in AACW."
"This game inspire the player to study, to read about Independent War..."
