Can they create an ultimate game-creation software? I am talking about game-making software such as SMILEBasic (3DS), BYOND and RPG Maker. Features it will have that these don't have and it's main features:
-A compiler for coding
-A big book that goes teaching the code from fresh beginner to expert
-A beginner-friendly graphic editor
-Being able to be exported on some major platforms
-Can make any kind of a game
-Has lots of resourses and has the ability to purchase many more resource packages at a cheap price
If it's for a system it should be fully priced. Like for the 3DS it should be at $39.99.
You might want to consider looking into Game Maker Studio. It has most of the features you're looking for, and has much more documentation and a more active userbase than SmileBASIC. The standard version is free, but the professional version has no restrictions. For non-windows systems you'll have to purchase export modules, including PS3/4, iOS, Android, etc. Definitely look into that.
Welcome everybody to the spam thread. :D
I prefer notepad for my development needs. All the libraries one could ever hope for, an easy to use, clean interface, no crashes, plus lightweight and fast. Works for every language too.
I hear there's a clone for mac called textedit.
