I downloaded Embarcadero's HTML5 Builder, and noticed that all the Andoid installers (SDK,JDK,Ant etc) were included in the install bundle, and correctly set up.

This would significantly simplify things for AGK.

That tool looks very intresting !

But the price is extreme

2700 skr - 5600 skr excluded taxes !

I would be extremely happy if they could get a simple apk builder for when testing apks on your phone or a friends for bugg testing in the next release.

I understand that they could have problems for full blown comercial apk files ready for the store.

One plain and simple solution would be a externally sold program from tgc to build apk files.

I would be happy to pay 50-60 $ for a program that only builds working apk files from my tier 1 projects

Embarcadero should be the good old Borland, Turbo Pascal, Turbo C and Turbo Prolog days of my youth
Price is high (about 350€), but the main question is: is it good to program games? Are there 2D sprite or 3D object library to build games as in AppGameKit? Or we have to code in CSS3 and JavaScript graphic library by ourselves.
It is not a problem of price, it is a problem of features..
About APK builder, I definitely think that TGC MUST include an APK builder into the (upcoming?) 1.08 (stable?) version.

Unlike Delphi, HTML Builder uses Javascript. I suspect one could could use it for simple games - but mainly it's for RAD front-ends.

My main point was that it includes all required SDKs etc.
