Not sure if this is the correct forum, but I have just purchased GLBasic after downloading the demo. I currently use another language which also compiles to pocket pc, however this is faster, smarter and way more portable.
Looking forward to being a member here. Only thing I would say is I found out about GLBasic through another forum by accident and not through pure advertising which is a shame as this looks a fantastic product
Hope to start submitting some code soon :)
Cheers

Hello Leginus!
Yes it's a wonderful product, I too discovered it by accident and haven't been programming anything else since then (except php for work) We look forward to see some of your work!
Hi Leginus :)
Are you ready to do a Last Ninja remake yet? I take it that you are a fan, by your avatar.
Anyway...
I've used lots of different programming languages over the years,spending many months and even years using them, however I've finally settled on GLBasic and I've been using it exclusively for the last year or so now. I was using BlitzMax at the same time for a while, but the cross-compilation for the GP2X and Wiz handhelds has been a deciding facto for me to use GLB exclusively, as they are my lead platforms and not pc any more.
Gernot /Kitty Hello (GLBasic's developer) has done a fantastic job improving GLBasic, but like you state advertising is virtually nil other than by games and wordof mouth. TBH I'm not sure any paid for advertising would be effective, so you have to let the games speak for themselves really. Just make sure you let people know that your games and apps were created in GLB and that'll help Gernot's cause.
Wow. I would have checked for replies earlier if I had realised how active these forums are, which is not something I am used to.
Yes it is a last ninja avatar (I loved that game). I have mentioned GlBasic to two of my developer friends already and sent a pocketpc compiled version of the chopper demo which amazed me with the 3d speed.
Already started developing and I am going to purchase a gp2wiz very shortly. I will work on the missus for the mac, as I have the iPhone already but I won't hold my breath lol

Same here, heard about it on the blitzbasic forum when someone posted about
developing for iphone. I do love Blitz though and it's a shame Mark doesn't support
mobile devices.
Anyway getting to know and love GLBasic at the moment.
