Developer website: Blitz Research
BlitzMax is the next generation game programming language from Blitz Research. BlitzMax retains the BASIC roots of Blitz3D and BlitzPlus, but adds a ton of cool new features and abilities.
BlitzMax is BASIC... but with a few twists, including:
- Function pointers
- Fully dynamic arrays
- Inheritance and polymorphism
- 'By reference' function parameters
- Byte, Short, Int, Long, Float and Double numeric data types
- Array and string slicing
- Flexible 'collection' system for dealing with linked lists etc
- Low level pointer handling
- UTF16 strings
- The ability to 'Incbin' binary data and access it as easily as if it were a regular file
- External language support for interfacing with C/C++/ObjectiveC or assembly code
BlitzMax programs can be compiled for Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows. The BlitzMax license is 'all in one' - buy BlitzMax once and run your programs on all 3 platforms.
