Asphyre Closure

[SilverWarior]

I'm realy sad to hear that especially since I was planning to use Asphyre Sphinx for my games.
I was silently hoping that wihle Delphi gets support for other platforms so will Asphyre so I would be able to keep my devlopment using the tools I use now.
I belive Asphyre Sphinx is the only graphic engine which was developed for being used with mainly Delphi.

This is sad, because Asphyre was one of the libraries moving me forward time ago. It was always good to know that there are other libs which provide some cool features and you have something to compete with.

Anyway, good luck with getting more free time and health to your baby, hope he/she(ahh, English... >_<) will be only joy for you

PS: Oh, and why Asphyre 4.0.0 disappeared?

So sad! The era of great engines for Pascal seems to be coming to an end! =(

My first 3 released game were done using Asphyre (First version of Druids - Battle of Magic, Abra Academy, Abra Academy - Returning Cast), and even in my next projects I have migrated to ZenGL I was always happy to see Asphyre was evoluting and releasing new versions. I always downloaded and tested every new version and was ansious to test the new version compatible com Delphi XE4 for iOS. And I never dismissed the possibility of maybe come back to use it someday. So sad to know it is also coming to an end.

Congratulations for your baby, mine baby girl completed 10 months of life and it is the major joy in my life! =)

I'll still keep using the ZenGL for a long time, but I'm starting to get worried about the future. What options do we have left? From since the begining, I always used portions of PhoenixLib together with Asphyre and ZenGL, and I know Andreaz is doing some very nice improvements and refactorings on it, =), Dan also seems to be doing a nice job with his engine on Smart Mobile Studio. I hope the era of good pascal game engines does not really come to an end and we keep seeing new options, improvements, and who knows, some reborns on future. "Why Pascal? Because we can!"

another closure aiii , future is not promissing
maybe some people should learn other programming languages such as c/c++ , java ..
pascal community is almost dead ,
