Várias ferramentas úteis para desenvolver jogos
Há um tempo me enviaram este post do Reddit chamado “Pocketknives for Game Developers“, que é um conjunto de ferramentas gratuitas úteis em várias partes do processo de desenvolver um jogo.
Segundo o post, todos os links que estão lá são muito bons para sua função específica, são gratuitos e “portables”, ou seja, são flexíveis a ponto de exportar os dados para serem usados em outras ferramentas.
Eu copiar a lista de lá colei aqui para facilitar, mas não deixem de acessar o post original clicando aqui, pois lá existem mais sugestões nos comentários e explicações de por que usar cada uma dessas ferramentas.
