Guys,
I think it couldn't hurt to talk with Adobe and see if they're interested in
using Crystalspace as their official 3d engine. Flash is a great language
which is very similar to C/C++ and I picked it up in just a few weeks. Working
on 2d games is like a walk in the park after my few years working with
CrystalSpace. Flash is good for games people aren't willing to download for
risk of infecting their computer with a virus.
Sure the chances of Adobe picking up CrystalSpace is very slim, but the fact
remains: Adobe has to pick a 3d engine for Flash soon, so why not
CrystalSpace? If CrystalSpace was adopted by Adobe, it'd be a boon for the
community, as there would be a lot of money rolling in.
I'm getting my first video game published in maybe a month and a half. It is a
Gauntlet style game. I'm with a crew of people who are trying to make a stab
at the video game market through Flash. Our plans is to go 3d in a few years
even if we have to write the code from scratch. But since we're a bootstrap
company, we don't have the funds to do 3d right now. I was just thinking how
cool it'd be if CrystalSpace 3d was the solution. But more importantly, how
good it'd be for Jorrit if he could get a deal with Adobe for a piece of the
Flash pie himself. That could be a deal worth tens of millions.
