Action Game in Multiple Platforms
A
comparative study on platform UI capabilities
This
is a study on the comparative advantages and disadvantages
of the UI and multimedia capabilities of different platforms.
I've implemented this action game as a benchmark program four
times - using Director, Win32, MacOS,
and Amulet toolkit. With each toolkit, I had to climb
up the learning curve of each toolkit fast and broad enough
to be able to finish each one, because I had almost
no prior knowledge of them when I started. On average
I spent about 20-30 hours for each implementation,
counting from the time I started to learn to use the toolkits
to the time I finished debugging the programs. The
criteria of evaluation include ease of development, sound,
graphics, synchronization, and event handling.
