We’re proud to present Connect4, a free game for Android published by Benedikt Magnus and LanIstAn today!

The game is using Castle Game Engine, with our 2D user-interface rendering, and includes music, localization (English, Polish, German, Spain), and networking support. You can plan against a computer, or against a friend over the network. I believe this is the first game with networked play done using CGE.

I really like this part of developing Castle Game Engine — seeing how others are using it to create the coolest things. Congratulations and thank you!

We also have a ton of new features added to Castle Game Engine lately. In particular, thanks to Benedikt Magnus we now have:

Thousand thanks!

And I’ll be posting more about the new CGE features later.

    1. Benedikt Magnus is the developer behind the game “Connect4”. You can ask him directly using the email address listed as “Developer” on https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.benediktmagnus.viergewinnt.app .

      That said, I know that Castle Game Engine (which was used to develop Connect4) can be used with any IDE that can be integrated with FPC. E.g. Lazarus, or a general text editor (like Atom or Emacs). But I don’t know which one Benedikt uses 🙂

      The compile the game for Android, we use the Castle Game Engine build tool ( https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/wiki/Build-Tool ).

      Regards!
