Do you have an iPhone game project that you want to get off the ground quickly? Get a substantial leg-up by building your project on a proven foundation, the game engine that drives Anytime Golf: The Bork3D Game Engine.The Bork3D Game Engine was built for mobile platforms. It actually has it's roots in Rude Engine, a high-performance graphics library for Pocket PC, Symbian and N-Gage. Performance and scalability is considered in every corner of the Bork3D Game Engine. If performance is a criteria for you, seriously consider this engine.
But this isn't a complete game engine by any stretch of the imagination. We don't want to over-sell you. If you want in-game content creation tools, a scripting language, and you basically want a cookie-cutter game made for you, you're looking in the wrong place. This engine is for people with some programming experience and the drive to make something that stands apart from the crowded iPhone game marketplace.
