Game development is one of the most gruesome tasks that a man can do. It is a time consumer and requires many sleepless nights debugging and getting art work correct. Many times marriages are at stake if programmers spend too much time working on their game. When the game is finally completed couples usually recover. |

The 3D Game Studio You can rapidly create game with the software without programming skills. Programming not required but recommended. Many commercial games have been created with The 3DGameStudio. October 24, 2007 5:53 PM by Luke101 |

I friggen hate darkbasic down especially their support. The software is buggy and the engine is slow. I wish I had discovered Blitz before I started on my current game but now I am too deep into it. I am going to finish it then switch over to BlitzMax
I don't think darkbasic is not that bad. If you upgrade the version you have it won't be so buggy. The newer version they have are very fast and not to mention a lot easier to program then blitz. It is so much easier to animate an object in DB then in BB.
LOL....qbasic :)
Yeah, I added qbasic because the language is still alive and amazingly people still use it. qbasic may be old put it is well documented and runs on legacy systems.
I voted for BlitzBasic. Although, they still use DirectX 7 it is the must featured and fastest game programming language out there. I've tried DarkBasic too but it was just plain buggy. It was easy very easy to use. I did'nt see any performance issues with darkbasic but from what I have seen it was not a finished product. And I hated their interface it made it hard to go on the internet and program at the same time.
I have tried Pure basic too. Super fast at execution speed even faster then blitzbasic at times but the language was not well documented. I had a hard time finding answers to my questions and their forums are on the light side.
Don't bother with anything other then Blitz, purebasic, or darkbasic.
I am voting for purebasic over the other languages because purebasic, is build strictly in Assymbly language which makes it fast and the executables are very small. Even for large programs the exe file is still tiny. Blitzbasic seems kinda bloated to me but still performs very well. But purebasic gets my vote.
