Drag[en]gine Integrated Game Development Environment (IGDE)
The IGDE is the main work place to create your games with. It provides a single application with various specialised editors and tools to create games using the Drag[en]gine Game Engine. The editor enables real-time preview of the created content but is not written using the game engine. This allows for a number of optimisations but more importantly offers developers a tool that looks & feels like a native OS application while providing all the benefits of using the game engine directly for previewing the game content.
Editors
The IGDE is based on housing a bunch of editors for game content. To create a game you create first a game project. Inside this game project all data is located and organized to keep projects well structured to work fast and easily. The editors can be improved with OS specific editors depending on the needs. The following editors are available in the IGDE:
