Hi at all again!

I have the opportunity to start the development of my game at Windows (VC++ or AppGameKit Basic) or on Mac (XCode C++ or AppGameKit Basic). So I asked myself what is the easiest way to supply all major platforms (Windows, Linux, Max, Android, iOS) in future, means compiling the same code without many adjustments.

(My idea was to use AppGameKit Basic, because it's platform- and compiler-independant)

Thanks in advance,
Sandwich

I am not an advanced coder, but using AppGameKit basic is in my opinion the best way to write the code just once and use it on all platforms. Using tier 2 will probably deliver better performance, but you'll face platform-specific extra work. I have found this using C++ for iOS .
