Has Cocos2DX been changed fully by Cocos Creator? It seems to be just like the final replace of 2DX was a pair years again. Will it proceed to be up to date/supported?
Sure, it’s endorsed to make use of cocos creator for brand new initiatives, cocos2dx won’t up to date once more.
Relies upon what’s your understanding of lifeless. It won’t be receiving new options, however I imagine it is going to be maintained for bugs. And for me that’s greater than sufficient to maintain utilizing it for a lot of a few years. Additionally, i don’t discover any lacking characteristic for the kind of 2nd video games I do.
Cocos2dx 4.0, regardless of the various “is lifeless” remark, is a really mature engine. Simply verify what number of superb video games the place and are nonetheless finished with it. Some builders are nonetheless utilizing as we speak 3.x model.
If you’re like some devs, together with myself, that need to code in c++ I’d suggest not be discouraged by the “is lifeless” feedback.
Perhaps for those who’re video games are 3d cocos creator would make sense? I don’t know.
I feel it’s a disgrace that they determined to drop new model of cocos2dx. I ve learn a number of feedback in different discussion board like Godot about coding in c++. In Godot you may, form of, however it extra like a binding.
Cocos2dx was the one 100% cpp engine mature sufficient for CPP devs. They’d one thing distinctive that different engines don’t present. It’s unhappy that they dropped it, however as I mentioned, in my case not less than, cocos 2dx 4.0 is greater than sufficient for years to come back.
Hope that helps
