Questions about engine

Can I make traditional 2D adventure games with Dage

Dage is a 3D engine. However there are possibilities to create 2D sprites, coding full adventure game by hand is time-consuming, but should be possible. You could use Adventure Game Studio or Wintermute Engine instead.

What are the hardware specs for Dage Engine

I don't know. At least a 1.5 GHz processor with Ati Mobility Radeon 9700 is running Dage smoothly.

Where can I see some games made with Dage to see what it can do?

We don't know if anyone has yet created any games with Dage. Most features are visible in the Demo that comes along with latest Dage Engine build.

Is Dage freeware? What's the license?

Dage is free for commercial and non-commercial use. However, it is not open source. If you wish to make money from your game (either shareware or commercial) you should contact the developer, as there are issues you need to concern.

Why are you giving this engine for free?

Personally I love adventure games, and I want to play more 3D adventure games. I'm hoping Dage would spice the genre.

Will you accept a donation?

Yes. Money is always welcomed. Donate here

When will the next version of Dage be released?

Soon.

Can you point me towards any good tutorials on learning Dage?

Currently all Dage-tutorials can be found on this site.

Have you personally made any adventure games?

No, sorry. Other than the original Demo I have not had the time to make any games.

What did you use to make Dage?

The Windows version is made with Delphi using GLScene and Karmarama Lua Wrapper.

Is Dage available for Linux or Mac?

Not yet. There is a plan to implement Linux and Mac versions of the Engine, which would mean you could basically develop a game with Windows version and run it with same resource files in Mac and Linux.

Can I have the source code, to port it myself?

Sorry, Dage is not open-source. If the day comes, I don't want to continue developing Dage, I will release it as an open source.
