Hi Dan,

I've done a tiny amount of Android dev (in Java), so I'm curious about the choice of C++. Does it perform significantly better, or is it easier to integrate existing C++ libraries, or do you like C++ more, or something else?

Thanks,
Saxon

Hi all. 

Speaking of game frameworks, I've been working on one for Android as a side-project [1].  BlueGin is written in C++, based on Flixel, and cobbled from code I used for a couple of native ports (EnviroBear, Canabalt).  The reference page [2] has more information on features.  Documentation is still pretty sparse but the API is stable and I think the samples are reasonably well commented.

Anyway, it's all open source and I hope someone finds it useful.  Even if just as a starting point for your own Android projects.  Feedback and patches gratefully accepted.


Cheers,

Dan.
