Hi all,

This topic to ask for your opinion on ag editors.

I am conducting a research into game-based learning at University and for that purpose I am
looking for an editor. Currently i am comparing different platforms.

Last year i have created a learning game for electricity in AGS, and for a pilot it turned out very well.
Off course it is not really professional but it is functional.
Now, for the rest of the research I am making up my mind: stay with AGS, or is there a better (maybe not free) editor available?
For instance, a game that can run directly from the web would be easy for e-learning purposes (you can skip the installation part)
Furthermore, the effort to learn to the tool should be minimal (which pleas for AGS) etc.

Can you help me making a wise decision?

Kind regards and thanks in advance for the help.

You should look at FLASH by macromedia..........

Its geared up for making web based games and websites..

You need to learn a sort of basic though......

Well, I know alot say you shouldn't, but in my opinion is Multimedia Fusion a really good and easy application. It's website is : www.clickteam.com It's not free, but it doesn't require any knowledge of programming, and you can make platform games with it, including adventures. You can also make all your games available online, to run as an applet in your browser, wich you want. Just check it out. The price is only $99, and it's worth it! They also have a great community to help you out!

AGS could definitly make a professional adventure. You just need damn good artists. and learn to use the script like a god.
