Citrus Engine Beta 1 Closed

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

The Citrus Engine’s first beta phase has been very successful. I am officially closing off the first beta so that I can focus on getting new features into the second iteration.

This means that I will no longer be providing support to non-paying customers for the time being. My sincere apologies for this, but I believe it will be for the better in the long run, as it will allow me to fix more bugs and put more features into the next release.

If you are waiting to download the Citrus Engine, please subscribe to this blog. At the moment, this will be the best way to know when it will be available again.

ABC Launches Game Using Citrus Engine

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has completed a fun game using the Citrus Engine at Lawrence Leung’s Choose Your Own Adventure site. There is a lot of content on the site, so in order to see the Citrus Engine game, click on “Find Love” and then click “Love is a game”. It’s a fun, quick playthough, so give it a try!

Glen McNab, the game’s developer said: “The CITRUS engine was a delight to use. It provided everything we needed to create and skin our platform game exactly the way we wanted it. Creating new levels was a breeze with the level editor and the API was intuitive and easy to extend.”

The Citrus Engine is currently closed to beta testers until beta 2. It will re-open in the future, even bigger and better. Subscribe to the blog to find out when you can download it!,
