What is Kodu Game Development?
Kodu is a powerful way to create complex animations. Kodu is easy to use for simple games and animations, regardless of your level of design or animation skills. Kodu allows you to create your own environment, add objects and characters, and even set the behavior and endings for your game with just a few mouse clicks. Kodu is cross-platform and compatible with all Windows operating systems. Even people with limited or no computer knowledge can create powerful, interactive games using Kodu.
You can quickly develop your game with Kodu by using both the graphical user interface as well as the command-line visual programming environment. Both the user interface as well as the command-line were designed to work with Windows. Kodu offers many tutorials to help even the most technical users. Many of these tutorials are focused on the Windows command-line. This makes it easy to create your first game with Kodu.
Let's take a quick look at some of the features that Kodu offers when creating games. Kodu comes with both a game engine (a pre-compiled script) and a simulator (a game engine). This allows you to control every step of the animation process, from creation to destruction. The simulator allows you to manipulate objects using the game controller or your keyboard. This will allow you to create realistic environments and simulate physical properties. The engine also allows you to connect to your computer hardware to help you troubleshoot or debug any issues you might be having with the software while you are developing your game. Although Kodu is intended for hobbyists and game developers, it offers enough advanced functionality that it can be used by anyone who wants to create realistic cartoon environments without being involved in the coding or design.
