So a few days ago, Epic Games, the maker of the Unreal and Gears of War series and the unreal engine, decided to release the full development kit for Unreal Engine 3.0, for free. This means that anybody can download and start developing with the engine, which is among some of the most advanced game making tools around, aswell as being one of the most easy-to-learn development tools out there for high-end game developing. |

Lets make a Dreamviews game! Yeah! Woo! *dead silence* |

Wait, a development kit, or an API? They're different and this looks like an API. This isn't unprecedented, quite a few game companies have released the source code to their engines. Open source usually means greater stability and more features. |

It's basically the same tools as what they give the companies that license Unreal Engine 3.0, such as Gearbox and 2K Boston. |

I'm actually rather excited by this. |

"...to the last I grapple with thee;
from hell's heart I stab at thee;
for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee."
Here is a guide on how to create a very basic game with UDK. |
